Title: Support for regional and local communities to prevent drug addiction on the local level 1.3. Sector: Justice and Home Affairs 1.4. Location: Poland, Warsaw, Ministry of Health - National Bureau for Drug Prevention 2. Objectives 2.1. Overall objectives Improvement of public health and security Strengthening the institutional administrative capacity on the regional and local level in order to improve the implementation of the EU drug acquis 2.2. Project purpose Consolidation of regional experts network in the field of monitoring of drug problem and preparing it for European cooperation by exchange of experiences with similar network in other Member State Creation of local experts networks and providing training in drug epidemiology to initiate drug monitoring on local level 2.3. Justification The importance of local level as most relevant for drug prevention as well as importance of conducting evaluation in order to rise the standards of the prevention activities is reflected both in EU - Action Plan on Drugs 2005-2008 and European Union Drug Strategy (2005-2012). Strategy indicates that.. the drugs problem is experienced primarily at local and national level.... In the Action Plan point.7 action 1 demand reduction we can read: Improve coverage of, access to, quality and evaluation of drug demand reduction programmes and ensure effective dissemination of evaluated best practices. The aim of the project is to prepare all social actors on the local level, especially local administration and civil society for undertaking evaluation task in order to implement evidence-based activities. The results of evaluation provide base for modification of the action and allowed to use available resources in most effective way. Undertaking of the project is important in terms of the needs for drug and drug addiction problem monitoring as well as providing EMCDDA with comparable data regulated by Council Regulation (EEC) No 302/93 of February the 8 th 1993 on the establishment of a European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction. 1

3. Description 3.1. Background and justification Poland determinedly and consistently adjusts activities focused on response to drug problem, aiming at reaching the compliance with the standards required by the EU. The required standards as well as the rules are specified in acquis communautaire (titles IV TEC and VI TEU) to which Poland successively and consistently adjusts its legal system. Poland is also aiming at meeting the standards and priorities specified in the European Union Drugs Strategy 2005-2012, signed in December 2004 in Brussels. Despite intensive actions, both legislative and organisational, as well as the efforts targeted at stopping the drugs use and the drug-related crimes, there is a significant lack of several institutional solutions as well as the technical resources themselves specially on the regional and local levels. Some of the gaps were the matter of the activities undertaken in the framework of Phare 2000 programme Fight against drugs and Phare 2003 programme Fight against drugs follow up. However still, there is a strong need for significant improvements. The Phare 2000 Program was focused on the national level, the Phare 2003 program extends its interest to the regional level, the Transition Facility Program 2004 was concentrated on development and implementation of drug strategies and action plans on local level. In case of Transition Facility Program 2006 still great concern is focused on the local level especially in terms of evaluation. In 2001 in the result of the change the Act on counteracting drug addiction (Act of Law of 6 September, 2001, Amending the Act on Counteracting Drug Addiction and other acts of law - Journal of Laws, 2001, No. 125, item 1367 dated 30 October, 2001) the legal base and mandate for the National Focal Point has been provided. Foregoing regulation finds its justification in the new Act of law on counteracting drug addiction of 29 July, 2005. NFP is located within National Bureau for Drug Prevention. The NFP collects and analyses data on drug problem as well as disseminates the results. Each year the National Report is prepared and submitted to EMCDDA as well as disseminated around Poland. Fulfilling obligations to EMCDDA, within the scope of five key indicators, demands introducing the protocol of data collection concerning treatment demand to the official routine statistical system. This aim can be achieved by introducing adequate regulations to the Ordinance of the Council of Ministers describing plan of the statistical research. In 2002 the regional experts network was created based on collaboration with regional authorities. The objectives of the regional experts was to collaborate with NFP on the field of data collection and to analyse data on regional level in order to provide regional authorities with evidence based information on drug situation and trends in the region. This year on the bases of the new Act of law on counteracting drug addiction of 29 July, 2005, legal bases was given to the activities conducted by the regional expert. According to the new act, regional experts are oblige to conduct and initiate researches, gathering and disseminating publications concerning drugs issues, formulating conclusions and recommendations for the local and regional drug policy and cooperate closely with the National Focal Point. The network of regional experts was supported by activities of Phare 2000 programme Fight against drugs (basic training, basic computer equipment supply) and in the framework of Phare 2003 programme Fight against drugs follow up limited to equipment supply. The 2

regional network still needs the consolidation in terms of in-depth training. The National Programme for Counteracting Drug Addiction in Poland 2002-2005 was approved by the Council of Ministers on the 30th of July 2002. The program includes the Strategy for development of the National Drug Information System in accordance with the EMCDDA standards. The Programme is being implemented and each year the implementation report is prepared in submitted to the parliament. The body responsible for drafting the programme, coordination of implementation and reporting, as well as evaluation is the national Bureau for Drug Prevention. The National Programme addresses a lot of tasks regarding drug prevention to local and regional level. Drug and drug addiction problems prevention has mainly local dimension. Differentiation of drug scenes in particular communities as well as different social, economic and cultural context indicate local level as most relevant one for formulating and implementing prevention programs. Only full mobilization of the whole community, especially local administrations and NGOs, as well as realization of planned and coordinated actions, can provide measurable effects. This way of thinking leads to the conclusion that there is a strong need for animation and support of prevention activity on local level. For this purpose activities aimed at increasing awareness and visibility of the drug problem prevention among locals communities as well as whole society as well as the implementation of effective prevention activities on different levels is needed. According to the new act of law communities are obliged to: - increasing availability of therapeutic and rehabilitation help for addicts and those who are endangered by an addiction. - giving psychosocial help for the families afflicted by drug problem - conducting prevention, informative, educational and instructional activity in the field of drugs problems, especially for children and teenagers Communities are also obliged to establish Local Programme for Drug Prevention. The annual monitoring report concerning foregoing Programme should be prepared by communities each year. The aim of the project is institutional strengthening of the local and regional level Project activities should reach all regions and at least 30 cities in the country. All activities planned within this project will not overlap with the activities financed by the European Social Fund. 3.2. Linked activities PHARE multi-beneficiary projects connected to the drug issues from 1994, 1996 and 1998 years. Regional project of some Central European countries - "Primary Prevention of drug demand within the local community." Project on the Technical Assistance to Drug Demand Reduction. The project aimed at reinforcing networks on DDR in the region; at facilitating further DDR policy development and at improving DDR expertise. As a result of the project, the Polish experts on DDR received the training on project formulation and management. The National Demand Reduction Resource Centre was established. Drug Demand Reduction Staff Training Project I and II were carried out in collaboration with the Pompidou Group. In the phase I, a selected group of experts improved their knowledge and skills during a short-term traineeships (stages) in the 3

various EU countries. The phase II started in 1999 and completed in 2002. As a result of the project the guidelines for Drug Demand Reduction for professionals and activists on local level was developed, published and disseminated. The Program Phare 2000 Fight against drugs was completed in the forth quarter of 2003. The Phare 2003 Program was completed in the forth quarter of 2005. Twinning Fight against organized crime 2003/005-710.03. The Transition Facility Program 2004 terms of reference for tenders are in the preparation phase. The current Transition Facility Program constitutes a direct continuation of Transition Facility Program 2004 which was continuation of phare 2003 and phare 2000 projects. All projects are focused on strengthening the institutional response to drug problem including improvement of drug policy and development of drug information system. The logic of the programs was to concentrate activity on the national level first and then to extend intervention to regional level and than to local level and even deeply. The second axis of whole projects activity development is pointed out by the logic of the action - from designing of drug policy on various levels through implementation to evaluation. Each new project in this project chain continues and further develops previously initiated activities and introduces new ones.
