📢 New paper alert! We investigate the impact of drug possession depenalization in Copenhagen. Despite positive interactions with community police, marginalized individuals still experience targeting by other units. Read more: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

“In our interviews, several people who use drugs spoke of how the new DCR brought with it a new relationship with the police. As one man told us: “It is a bit funny, and it takes some getting used to,” talkingdrugs.org/denmarks-drug-… by @TKammersgaard & Esben Houborg for @Talkingdrugs

🚨"Harm Reduction policing" presents itself as a new alternative to prohibition. Yet Denmark highlights how it maintains prohibition, with limited benefits for those using, selling or sharing drugs. ✍️ @tkammersgaard & Esben Houborg talkingdrugs.org/denmarks-drug-…

Our recent blog post @Talkingdrugs analyses how “non-enforcement zones” around Copenhagen's drug consumption rooms have led to positive interactions between police and people using drugs, but also ongoing criminalization of vulnerable individuals. 🇩🇰🚓 talkingdrugs.org/denmarks-drug-…

@DrLBainbridge Thank you, Laura! 🤩🙏

@TKammersgaard Congratulations! 🥳

📣 I’m excited to announce that I’ve started a new position as Assistant Professor at the Centre for Alcohol and Drug Research at Aarhus University, where I will continue doing research on drug policy and policing. It’s great to be back, but will also miss good people in the UK!

@Crawford1Adam @VP_Centre Thank you, Adam! It was a great trip to Sweden. Hopefully, I can show you that Denmark is just as great someday, even if our nature isn't as exciting. But as a Dane, I have to say we're still the best. 😂

@TKammersgaard with the second presentation on our @VP_Centre project on County Lines, exploring the changing and complex ways in which victim and offenders are categorised and why. Some important questions throughout this panel in relation to gaining and losing victim status.

Young people involved in drug markets are increasingly framed as victims of criminal exploitation rather than as offenders, explains @TKammersgaard. This present dilemmas for 👮🏼, that must assess if the individual is in need of safeguarding measures or criminal justice response.

Taking place at 9.30am (UK time), 23 May, this event is an excellent opportunity for PhD students to reflect on how your own research may use 'vulnerability' and to hear from fellow PhD students about their experiences with this topic. Register below 👇
