Public Education

In today's information age, educating the public about drug abuse is of paramount importance to ensure that people are presented with healthy life choices. Public Education therefore can ensure such awareness by reaching large and diverse groups of persons.

Aim

The Public Education strategy is aimed at promoting public awareness on the hazards and consequences of drug use/abuse and the alternative lifestyles accessible to individuals vulnerable to both legal and illegal drugs. This is done through:
  1. Lectures and workshops
  2. Two-way educational campaigns and
  3. Other communicative vehicles

Current

NADAPP engages in:
  1. Hosting radio and television programmes
  2. Conducting seasonal campaigns

Future Initiatives

NADAPP proposes to intensify its public education thrust, more so during festive seasons, to reduce the consumption of drugs through major festive activities such as, Carnival, Easter, Arrival Day, Borough Day celebrations and the like.
