Vision of a Europe for Health

In 2019, in the run of the European Elections, Coalition PLUS and its European Platform released a document called “Our Vision of a Europe for Health” endorsed by 56 NGOs.

Because the war on drugs is tougher than ever and keeps failing people’s access to care, the initiators have decided to update their 2019 Manisfesto, with a version focused on Decriminalization and Harm reduction. It will be used to reach out to candidates for the European Parliament.

The Manifesto (linked here>>>) will be available in English, French, Portuguese, Spanish and Romanian.

DPNSEE and several our member organisations have supported this Manifesto.

If you want to join us, send a message to Stéphan Vernhes (svernhes@aides.org) with:

  • a contact name that won’t appear on the document
  • the full name of their NGO
  • a high-definition logo of their NGO
  • and then a simple sentence: “I agree that the name and logo of my organisation are used and displayed in support of the Coalition PLUS European Platform’s 2024 European Parliament Elections Manifesto”.

The deadline to sign it is Monday 8th April at 1pm (Brussels time).

 

Manifesto for the upcoming European Elections

Several European networks and organisations working in the area of drugs (DPNSEE indluding), initiated by Correlation – European Harm Reduction Network and NEWNet Enjoying Safer Nightlife, have joined forces to prepare a document that lays down a vision for a pragmatic, innovative, and human rights-centred European drug policy that will deliver healthier and safer communities and invite candidates for the Members of the European Parliament and various political parties to support it.

The Manifesto for the 2024 European Parliament Elections For a drug policy that makes Europe safer, healthier, and more just Drug Policy is available by following this link>>>.

DPNSEE has signed the Manifesto and recommends that you join us and our colleagues from around Europe in this effort.

Additionally, if you are interested in being an active campaign member, reaching out to candidates for the European Parliament, etc., please write to Marie Nougier (mnougier@idpc.net) and she will loop you in with the campaign core group. The group has developed a toolkit to support campaign members!
