Australia can be a country where people who use drugs are treated with respect, dignity and empathy. Good drug policy will help us to achieve this. We will only have good policy however, if we share and act upon our knowledge, to promote greater understanding of harm reduction as an essential element of our health system response to drug use. For this reason I am very pleased to be a supporter of Harm Reduction Australia.
