“In our interviews, several people who use drugs spoke of how the new DCR brought with it a new relationship with the police. As one man told us: “It is a bit funny, and it takes some getting used to,”

🚨"Harm Reduction policing" presents itself as a new alternative to prohibition.
Yet Denmark highlights how it maintains prohibition, with limited benefits for those using, selling or sharing drugs.

Our recent blog post @Talkingdrugs analyses how “non-enforcement zones” around Copenhagen's drug consumption rooms have led to positive interactions between police and people using drugs, but also ongoing criminalization of vulnerable individuals. 🇩🇰🚓

Young people involved in drug markets are increasingly framed as victims of criminal exploitation rather than as offenders, explains @TKammersgaard. This present dilemmas for 👮🏼, that must assess if the individual is in need of safeguarding measures or criminal justice response.
