Back In 2017, MedNET is expanding its activities to address the specific issue of women and drugs

The 21st MedNET meeting was chaired by Nicolas Prisse, the new president of France's Interministerial Mission for the Fight against Drugs and Addictive Behaviours (Mildeca), in Paris on 9 May. The participants welcomed the implementation of the ambitious MedNET work programme for 2016-2018.

The network – which celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2016 – continues to expand its scope, focusing on women's issues in drug policies.

Its activities are constantly expanding thanks to contributions from its donors, France and Italy, and thanks to the expertise brought by all its members.

Indeed, the sharing of knowledge and experience is not confined to the network: expertise is also provided by the Pompidou Group's member states: Belgium, Croatia, Ireland and Switzerland, as well as non-member states such as Spain.

The model of cooperation set up by the network is inspiring other regions of the world such as West Africa and Latin America.

Palestine, the 14th member of MedNET which joined at the end of 2016, participated in the meeting and outlined its priorities for the years to come.
