The Drug Policy Modelling Project (DPMP)
Monographs
The aim of the Drug Policy Modelling
Project (DPMP) is to create valuable new drug policy insights,
ideas and interventions that will allow Australia to respond
with alacrity and success to illicit drug use. DPMP addresses
drug policy using a comprehensive approach, that includes
consideration of law enforcement, prevention, treatment and
harm reduction. The dynamic interaction between policy options
is an essential component in understanding best investment
in drug policy.

DPMP project go to: www.dpmp.unsw.edu.au
