7th European Drugs Summer School

The University Institute of Lisbon (ISCTE-IUL) and the EU drugs agency (EMCDDA) will be joining forces once again next summer to hold the seventh European Drugs Summer School (EDSS) on ‘Illicit drugs in Europe: Demand, Supply and Public Policies’. Registration is now open for the two-week course, which will take place in Lisbon from 25 June to 6 July, 2018. The initiative is also supported by the US National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA).

Through a multidisciplinary and interactive approach to the drugs problem, EMCDDA scientific experts, leading academics, guest speakers, policymakers and professionals having participated in previous rounds of the EDSS, will prepare participants to meet the complex policy challenges in this field — both in Europe and beyond. The focus of the 2018 course will be on drug prevention approaches.
