Episode Details

A WHO drug policy lead is sparking global debate by arguing that addiction must be treated as a health crisis—not a criminal one. Visiting Dublin’s drop-in center, she highlights how compassionate, non-punitive services can transform lives, like Tracy O’Connor’s journey from homelessness to recovery. With Ireland’s committee now recommending decriminalization of personal drug possession—and WHO pushing for health-centered policies worldwide—this episode reveals how shifting from justice to care can save lives, especially amid the growing crisis of crack cocaine use.
