The Global Drug Survey (GDS), the world’s largest annual drug use survey, is currently exploring topics like drug prices, decriminalisation/legalisation impacts, illicit to***co use, performance-enhancing drugs, nitrous oxide use, to***co policies, and drug use in nightlife/festival settings.

The anonymous online survey takes 20-30 minutes, is available in nine languages, and is open to anyone aged 16 or over who has used a drug (including alcohol or to***co) in the past year. Please share this with your networks and encourage participation.

🤝 Effective Harm Reduction - Informing strategies to minimise risks and support people who use drugs.
🏥 Inform Public Health Planning - Provide data for evidence-based planning and resource allocation.
📈 Early Detection of Trends - The EDRS can identify emerging patterns in drug use.
