Global Partnership on Drug Policies and Development (GPDPD)

The Global Partnership on Drug Policies and Development (GPDPD) addresses the complex challenges posed by illegal drug crop cultivation, drug trafficking, and drug use. As the world grapples with the largest illicit economy, GPDPD offers a comprehensive strategy to tackle these issues at a global scale. It is commissioned by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and implemented under the political lead of the Commissioner of the Federal Government for Drug and Addiction Policy by GIZ GmbH. GPDPD collaborates with governments and partners from international organizations, civil society, and academia. Our objective is to promote development-focused, health-centric, and human rights-oriented drug policies. At the heart of our approach is the well-being of individuals, integrating rural development with public health measures to create sustainable solutions for the global drug challenge. Join us in shaping a new international norm in drug policy, where human dignity and holistic development are paramount.
