On 21 July 2016, EUPOL COPPS organised a donor coordination meeting on a new Drug Awareness project. In line with the National Strategy on Drugs defined by the Palestinian Ministry of Interior, the Anti Narcotics Department, (Awareness and Education Section), in cooperation with the Palestinian psychologist and therapist, Mrs. Thawra Enjass, are designing and planning to implement a specialized intensive training programme targeting Drug Awareness officers in the Anti Narcotic department.
The project will consist of different programmes, including basic training for those working with psychotropic drug abuse, basic training programme for education and awareness lecturers, specialized training schemes, and continuous plan to develop and improve the skills of officers.
This programme seeks to qualify Drug Awareness officers in order to educate and raise awareness among mid and high school students, university students, youth, parents, civil society individuals and specialists.
