  • Creating a Movement to Just Say No to the War on Drugs Eugene Jarecki's documentary takes on the US' war on drugs, calling for a shift in public perception and policy around drug use. This is the final in our interview series with the 2014 BritDoc Impact Award winners. Matisse Bustos Hawkes January 16, 2015
  • Victims of the Latin American War on Drugs Make the Case for Reform Latin American drug policies have made no dent in the drug trade; instead they have taken a tremendous toll on human lives. In 2009, the Washington Office on Latin America (WOLA) and the Transnational Institute (TNI) embarked on an ambitious project to document the real impact of Latin America’s “war on drugs” and to show its human cost through the video testimoniesof the victims themselves.

  • Video, Human Rights and Drug Policy in Ukraine At my organization, the Association of Substitution Treatment Advocates of Ukraine, we provide psychosocial support to patients in substitution therapy (ST). Ukraine has the highest HIV infection rates in Europe, and one of the highest rates of drug addiction in the world, so I can say with confidence that I'm doing useful work. WITNESS September 20, 2012
  • Video Advocacy Example: Hope for Intravenous Drug Users In Russia The Andrey Rylkov Foundation (ARF) is the only organization providing needle exchange for drug users in Moscow.
