During the closing session at INHSU2026, EuroNPUD ED and rapporteur Leo Jefferys reflected on the community feedback from this year’s conference and highlighted some of the work and moments that brought people together.

It was great to hear INPUD’s 20th anniversary mentioned, along with our anniversary video, our new report The Human Cost of Policy Shifts: V2, and the EuroNPUD General Assembly.

So nice to see INPUD’s work and community reflected in the closing of such a great conference. ❤️

A great session at INHSU2026 today! ❤️

Annie Madden and Mat Southwell presented on low dead-space needle and syringe scale-up and peer-led harm reduction, looking at building prevention synergies in low- and middle-income countries.

Always good to see peer-led approaches and practical harm reduction solutions taking centre stage at the INHSU conference.

A wonderful Community Day at INHSU2026 in Prague!

On 6 October, we came together in Prague for a full day of community, discussion and celebration.

We celebrated INPUD’s 20th anniversary with the presentation of our anniversary video, which was a chance to reflect on two decades of community-led work.

Anton Basenko spoke about INPUD’s Human Cost of Policy Shifts 2.0 report, and Annie Madden presented the Jude Byrne Emerging Female Leader Award.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for such a special day at INHSU2026!

Today, Rita Gatonye from INWUD spoke at the 63rd session of the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva, at the side event “Women, Girls and Drug Policies: Advancing a Human Rights Approach”.

Her intervention highlighted the importance of ensuring that women who use drugs have a meaningful role in shaping the policies that affect their lives.

As Rita put it, meaningful participation requires “representation, leadership, resourcing, power, authority and safety in policy engagement”.

SAVE THE DATE!

📅 Wednesday, 30 September 2026
🕒 15.00-16.30 Central European Time (CET)

Join us for a Community Dialogue Space where INPUD will launch the Community Brief: Not another red herring! Full decriminalisation of all drugs is non-negotiable. The brief is designed specifically by and for the community of people who use drugs, highlighting and emphasising INPUD’s positions and statements on the different aspects of drug decriminalisation, drawn from the recently launched A Guidance Note: Decriminalization of drug use in the context of HIV, developed jointly by INPUD, UNAIDS, UNDP, Release, and the International Centre on Human Rights and Drug Policy.

This is a community-speakers-only webinar — we will preserve the space for our expertise, experiences and untold stories. We will reclaim the safe space once again, so we can speak freely and not worry about using politically correct language. And we will dedicate this space to all the lives lost due to decades of oppression and repressive laws and policies that were designed based on one of the most catastrophic global propagandas: the illusion of a "drug-free world society” and the justification for "the war on drugs".

Join us for an interactive dialogue, debate, challenge to misconceptions, reality check and accountability to our own global movement. This is not just a webinar. These are people who use drugs!
