Drug misusers are increasingly seen as patients requiring care, rather than as confirmed delinquents. But is this the case with pregnant women who misuse drugs? What kinds of care are available to them? Can special provision be made for them? What ethical issues arise? The aim of this seminar held in Strasbourg in May 2000 was to review the situation in the field of care provision for drug-misusing pregnant women and suggest new areas of work for the future.
How is drug policy developed? Members of the Pompidou Group research platform from 17 European countries have studied this question, taking into account differing national political contexts, the influence of international conventions and drug strategies at V European level, the evolution of scientific knowledge, and treatment of drug addiction in the most broad sense of the word. This work in part provides a reply to the question whether countries opt for an integrated policy on substances, or for a separate policy for each substance. This publication also attempts to identify to what extent civil society, practice and science influence the formulation of drug policy.
