Title Women's voices : experiences and perceptions of women who face drug-related problems in Europe Type Report
Year 2009 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 24
Keywords gender; woman; gender differences; AOD use; prevalence; AODR mortality; research; Europe; report
Abstract Epidemiological studies routinely collect quantitative data on gender differences in drug use (e.g. prevalence, mortality), but far less is published on the qualitative aspects of female drug problems. This review presents quotations gleaned from interviews with women in eight countries. Through these testimonies, the report illustrates how qualitative research can provide glimpses into the experiences and perceptions of women facing drug issues that statistics alone cannot provide.

Title Report on the risk assessment of BZP in the framework of the Council decision on new psychoactive substances Type Report
Year 2009 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 91
Keywords risk assessment; report; Europe
Abstract This publication presents the findings of the formal risk assessment on BZP, produced in 2007 by the Scientific Committee of the EMCDDA, with participation of additional experts from the European Commission, Europol and the EMEA. The risk assessment report, which was submitted to the European Commission and the Council of the European Union on 31 May 2007, examines the health and social risks of the drug, as well as information on international trafficking and the involvement of organised crime. Furthermore, the report considers the potential implications for placing the drug under control in the EU. On the basis of this report — and on the initiative of the European Commission — on 3 March 2008, the Council decided that BZP is to be subject to control measures.

Title Prevention of substance abuse Type Report
Year 2008 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 171
Keywords prevention; prevention directed at groups; prevention outcome; research; Germany; Europe
Abstract This publication provides information on best practice in drug prevention at European, national, regional and municipal level. It is a translation of a German study commissioned by the Federal Centre for Health Education, Cologne. While, in some sections, reference is made particularly to Germany, the publication’s conclusions are international, providing added value for a pan-European or global readership. It is hoped that the publication will help accelerate the development in Member States of quality standards for prevention projects and training requirements for prevention workers.

Title Cocaine and crack cocaine : a growing public health issue Type Report
Year 2007 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 30
Keywords government and politics; international area; Europe
Abstract In a Selected issue on ‘Cocaine and crack cocaine: a growing public health issue’ the EMCDDA shows that, in some European countries, there has been a marked increase in recent years in the use of cocaine, in treatment demands for cocaine problems and in seizures of the drug. The potential for cocaine use to have a major impact on public health is examined and special attention given to the health consequences of cocaine use, which are often not well recognised in existing reporting systems. Also examined are the challenges to providing effective treatment for cocaine and crack cocaine dependence.
