Last week, our ED Anton Basenko spoke at the HRI webinar about keeping #HarmReduction alive in the face of a global funding collapse.
His message was clear: funding cuts cost lives, and where harm reduction survives, it survives because #communities hold the line.
Our #StrategicPlan 2025–2029 is out.
Clear direction, strong priorities and a focus on building power for our community.
People who use drugs deserve rights and real influence — and this plan backs that.
Take a look at our Strategic Plan: inpud.net/inpud-strate...

People who use drugs are shaping the future of #DrugPolicy — loud, proud and powerful.

Happy International Drug Users Day! ❤️
A day to celebrate our communities, our resilience and the fight that never stops.
