Have your say on a path to better drug laws for Aotearoa

We want to hear from people who are most impacted by our drug laws: people who use drugs, or have used drugs, people who have experienced overdose, addiction or harm, or have been arrested or convicted for drug use. We’re also interested to hear from people who supported others who have experienced such harms. 

We're hosting a survey and workshops on how to improve the lives and wellbeing of people who use drugs, and we want you to be involved. This research will help us develop a proposal for a better system – with communities of people who are at risk of harm at the forefront.  

To participate:  

You can participate in both the survey and the workshop, or you can pick only one way to participate in this project. 

This project is generously funded by the Borrin Foundation.
