On this International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, under the theme "World Drug Problem: Persisting Issues, New Challenges, Innovative Responses," let us recognize that people living with substance use disorders are not criminals—they are individuals who deserve dignity, compassion, and access to treatment. Addiction is a public health issue, not a moral failing. Together, let us replace stigma with understanding, punishment with support, and judgment with hope for recovery.
