World Federation Against Drugs

World Federation Against Drugs (WFAD) is a multilateral community of non-governmental organisations and individuals. Founded in Stockholm, Sweden, 2009, the aims of WFAD is to strengthen prevention, increase access to treatment and to promote recovery. 

The work of WFAD is built on the principles of universal fellowship and basic human and democratic rights. We believe that working for a society free from non-medical user of narcotic drugs will promote peace, human development, democracy, tolerance, freedom and justice. All people have the right to be protected from the harms created by illicit drug use. Furthermore, people with substance use disorders (SUD) have the right to live productive, drug-free lives; and should be supported in their recovery journey.
