В 2018 году в Момбасе планировалось создать метадоновую программу для потребителей инъекционных наркотиков с героином, живущих в тюрьмах.

Based on the 2019 Drug Use Survey in Nigeria, UNODC estimates that there are more than three million Nigerians living with some of a drug use disorder.

While access to drugs has become more difficult, the same challenges apply to accessing treatment and counselling services. The self-imposed isolation can indeed be burdensome for those suffering from drug use disorders as well as their families.

In order to provide immediate and practical relief, UNODC Nigeria...

As the fight against the virus intensifies we are of the view that the fight needs to be segmented and focus on different parts of society because...
