Global Commission on Drug Policy

In January 2011, a group of personalities from the Americas and Europe established the Global Commission on Drug Policy. Its members include fourteen former heads of state or government, as well as other experienced and well-known leaders from the political, economic and cultural arenas.

The purpose of The Global Commission on Drug Policy is to bring to the international level an informed, science-based discussion about humane and effective ways to reduce the harm caused by drugs and drug control policies to people and societies.

In August 2020, Helen Clark was been appointed Chair of the Commission.
