2:57Now PlayingHow Is Drug Possession Handled In Portugal After Decriminalization? In this informative video, we will discuss Portugal's unique approach to drug possession and the outcomes of its decriminalization policy. We will explain how drug possession for personal use is now classified as an administrative violation rather than a criminal offense. You'll learn about the role of the Dissuasion Commission, which comprises legal, social, and health professionals dedicated to providing support instead of punishment.
Our discussion will cover the various services coordinated by the Instituto para os Comportamentos Aditivos e as Dependencias, including harm reduction and treatment programs. We will also highlight the impressive results of this policy, such as reductions in overdose deaths and new infections among drug users.
This video will examine how Portugal’s model reflects liberal values by prioritizing individual rights, social inclusion, and public health. We invite you to join us for this enlightening discussion and subscribe to our channel for more informative content on liberalism and social policies.
