What is the purpose of carrying out national anti-drug publicity and education?

The worldwide spread of drugs has become a serious threat to the international people. According to United Nations statistics, the global drug trade volume is as high as more than 500 billion US dollars every year, which is the second largest trade in the world after the arms trade. In 1980s, drug abuse caused 654.38 million deaths worldwide.

Drugs not only seriously damage human health, endanger national quality, encourage violent crimes, but also devour huge social wealth. For developing countries, the losses caused by drugs and the huge amount of money needed to eradicate drugs are a heavy burden.

1987 In June, the United Nations Ministerial International Conference on Drug Control was held in Vienna, Austria. More than 3000 representatives from 138 countries attended the meeting. The meeting adopted the Comprehensive Multidisciplinary Outline of Drug Control Activities. At the end of the 26th meeting, the delegates unanimously passed the resolution.

Since 1988, June 26th has been designated as "International Anti-Drug Day" every year, in order to arouse the attention of people all over the world and call on people all over the world to work together to solve the drug problem. In February of the same year, the 42nd UN General Assembly passed a resolution, and decided to designate June 26th as the International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking.
