Earlier this year the Senlis Council, a European think-tank that has relocated much of its efforts to Afghanistan, released a report on the feasibility of licensing Afghan opium for the legal production of opiates used in medicine, such as morphine. The study was released on September 26 at an international symposium held in Kabul.

Phase two of the Senlis research will examine how the results of the first study can be practically applied, and the Council is seeking tenders from persons/institutions wishing to participate in a range of research projects in the disciplines of development economics, international and comparative law, agronomy, pharmacology, sociology, and healthcare systems, particular from those with demonstrated experience inside Afghanistan.
