Development of drug abuse counselling, treatment and rehabilitation service in Cambodia

Duration: May 2005– March 2010
Budget: US$1,176,001
Implementing Agencies: UNODC

As Cambodia was becoming an increasingly important transit country for drug trafficking in South East Asia, the programme¡¯s overall goal was to reduce the rapidly increasing trend of substance abuse in five highly affected provinces. Based on a comprehensive vulnerability mapping of drug abuse and unsafe sexual practices, the programmes supported a targeted approach by building the capacities of local authorities, village focal entities, local healthcare centres, the police, and community members.
