UNGASS event - Human rights impacts of drug policies

How can better drug policies help improve prison conditions and protect human rights? This is what will be discussed during this UNGASS side event on Monday 18th April.

The expert panel will explore issues including:

• Right to health, including healthcare in prison.

• Arbitrary arrest (including compulsory detention treatment centres) and disproportionate sentences.

• Particular impacts of the ‘war on drugs’ on women.
