Dominican Republic
We support the Dominican Republic to strengthen its National Drug Observatory, reduce demand through community-based treatment approaches and reduce supply through the control of precursor chemicals.
How do we support the country?
Strengthening the National Drug Observatory
- 1 national research network to strengthen the national drug information system
- 1 Scientific Committee on Drugs to advise the National Drug Observatory of Dominican Republic
Drug demand reduction
- 1 community treatment project in the Bani Correction and Rehabilitation Centre for women in prison to promote social integration and wellbeing, from which a territorialisation strategy is developed to be included in the new national drugs policy in the area of public safety and prisons.
Control of chemical precursors
- 1 manual on the management and final disposal of drug precursor chemicals.
- 1 study visit to Costa Rica to exchange knowledge and experience on the management and disposal of chemical precursors.
- 1 technical assistance to strengthen control systems for precursor chemicals.
Proportionality and criminal alternatives
- 1 protocol for the implementation of the restorative justice programme for youth involved in minor drug offences that promotes rehabilitation and social reintegration.
