DRCNet will soon announce the first
two events in our international conference series, "Out from the Shadows:
Ending Drug Prohibition in the 21st Century." We hope to have exact
dates and locations confirmed within two weeks, but in the meantime want
to let interested parties know that they will probably be in Brussels,
Belgium in the fall and Merida, Yucatan, Mexico in February. Send
an e-mail to [email protected]
to receive a formal announcement, or just keep reading DRCNet! (Groups
in Latin America should also be aware of the availability of drug reform
funding from the Tides Foundation, proposals due on the 24th of this month
-- see below.)
