The Global Youth Network project is run by UNDCP to increase youth involvement with the international community in developing drug abuse prevention policies and programmes. We hope to create a community of interest among youth and youth workers in the field of drug abuse prevention. The network has three main objectives: increase communication between youth groups and UNDCP, collect and disseminate information on good practices and build the capacity of youth groups across the world to successfully conceptualise and implement drug abuse prevention projects. www.unodc.org/youthnet
