One of the things that Kev spoke about in episode 3 is engaging people who use drugs in research. Kev chatted about his own research enquiry and reflected on this more broadly within the field too. Listen to the latest episode to find out more!
Happy 2024 to all our followers. A bit of a slower start to social media this year after returning to the UK from Australia.
If you need some Monday Inspo, why not listen the latest podcast episode with @KevDertadian which includes a discussion on drug consumption rooms!
In episode 3, we discuss @KevDertadian research on the non medical use of prescription drugs. This helps us expand the conceptualisation and meaning of drug use in contemporary societies. Tune in to find out more!
We are GO! I had the great pleasure of chatting to @KevDertadian for ep 3 Kev is an advocate for centralising the voices of people who use drugs in research and critically interrogating policy, discourses and practices that surround marginalised groups. ENJOY ✌️

Our last episode featured here and available to listen via major podcast platforms. Check out @HRInews for their recent divest invest report ✌️❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
We spend 750x more on punitive responses to drugs than we do on life-saving services for people who use drugs. What could we achieve if we divest from the drug war? #investinjustice
