With drug use growing globally with far-reaching implications for health, crime, poverty and wellbeing, Ulster University researchers convened a seminar to look at innovative approaches to reduce the harm and costs associated with drug use as well as challenge our understanding of contemporary drug issues.

Organised as part of the Imagine! Festival of Ideas and Politics, the seminar brought together local and international experts and practitioners to share learning and explore key themes and ideas in relation to drugs policy.
