Keynote Speaker Announcement!

1st April 2025

We’re excited to welcome Dr. Kojo Koram – Reader in Law at Birkbeck School of Law, University of London – as a keynote speaker at the 18th ISSDP Conference 2025!

A legal scholar, author, and commentator, Dr. Koram explores the impact of drug laws, race, and empire on global inequalities. He has also served for 11 years as a legal advisor at Release, the UK’s centre on drugs, law and human rights. His expertise in law, policy and historical inequalities makes him a leading voice in drug policy reform and social justice.
