To prevent drug addiction among youngsters, governments and educational institutions should create more opportunities for positive engagement through Book Clubs, Sports Clubs, Music Clubs, Viscom & Mass Communication Clubs, Innovation & Robotics Clubs, Coding Clubs, Chef Clubs, Arts & Theatre Clubs, and Volunteer Groups.
These activities help students discover their talents, build confidence, develop leadership skills, improve mental health, and form positive friendships. An engaged student is far less likely to fall into drug abuse.
Instead of focusing only on rehabilitation, let's invest in skills, creativity, sports, and innovation. The best antidote to drugs is purpose, opportunity, and hope.
