UNODC is implementing a large-scale project funded by the European Union under the 10th European Development Fund (EDF) entitled “Response to Drugs and Related Organized Crime in Nigeria”, which aims at supporting Nigeria’s efforts in fighting drug production, trafficking and use, and in curbing related organised crime, including counterfeit narcotics and psychotropic substances. The project proposes a balanced approach to drug control, with equal attention paid to drug interdiction and drug demand reduction, including drug prevention, treatment and care (DPTC).
Target Groups
- The primary target group comprises: people who use drugs (including injecting drug users); and their partners and families.
- The beneficiaries should be 200 people who use drugs and their partners and families in the identified local community setting. (Beneficiaries are those who access services at the drop-in-centre).

- Staff
