The International Society for the Study of Drug Policy (ISSDP) was selected as one of just 6 organizations co-producing a thematic track at the Lisbon Addictions conference (October 23-25, 2019). This led to 16 sessions and 65 presentations emphasizing high-quality research focused on developing robust data, improved monitoring approaches, and multidisciplinary analytic methods that provides a strong scientific basis for the development of new drug policies or tools to better implement and evaluate their effects. This was the largest co-produced stream at the conference.
