Transform Drug Policy Foundation
The Transform Drug Policy Foundation is a charitable think tank that seeks to draw public attention to the fact that drug prohibition itself is the major cause of drug-related harm to individuals, communities and nations, and should be replaced by effective, just and humane government control and regulation.
Transform has emerged in response to the increasingly apparent failings of current UK and international drug policy. As illegal drug use and the problems associated with illegal drug markets have continued to grow, Transform is providing new thinking on alternatives to the current enforcement-oriented regime of prohibition.
In short, Transform is seeking to reform policies that have attempted to control drug use through criminal justice enforcement, a failed approach that has been enormously destructive.
For a concise introduction to what motivates the Transform Drug Policy Foundation to do their work, please download their publicity leaflet “Illegal Drugs: The Problem is Prohibition; The Solution is Control and Regulation“.
