Nothing About Us Without Us — Greater, Meaningful Involvement of People Who Use Illegal Drugs: A public health, ethical, and human rights imperative

This booklet summarizes the main issues addressed in the Legal Network’s paper on greater involvement of people who use illegal drugs.

In particular, it explains why people who use illegal drugs must be meaningfully involved in Canada’s response to HIV/AIDS, hepatitis C (HCV), and injection drug use, and the benefits of greater involvement.

The booklet also contains a manifesto written by people who use drugs, and describes the achievements of two organizations of people who use drugs, the Vancouver Area Network of Drug Users and the Thai Drug Users’ Network.
