Drugs

Illicit drugs and their trade has become an unfortunate element of the image of Latin America. The illegal drug trade poses a threat to the stability of law enforcement and civil society and it does nothing but leave violence and destruction in its wake. The OAS is very dedicated to combating this problem and has many projects focused on supply and demand reduction and developing stronger anti-drug institutions within individual states.
