There are many opportunities, but also risks, for #TradeJustice in the emerging legal drug market. The trade justice sector must engage with legal #DrugRegulation to shape fairer futures. Read the papers. Join the conversation. Get in touch. healthpovertyaction.org/wp-content/upl…

How could the legal regulation of drugs deliver #TradeJustice? A legally regulated market, if rooted in principles of transitional justice, could give people the opportunity to produce and trade drugs without fear, earn decent wages, and support sustainable economic growth. 🧵

These new papers highlight the opportunities and risks through facts, figures, quotes and case studies from around the world to show how #DrugReforms must deliver #GlobalJustice. #CND68 healthpovertyaction.org/the-legal-regu…
