Dear friends and colleagues,
It is our pleasure to announce that the statement Support patient access to medicine, vote yes! has been released by the UN under document symbol E/CN.7/2020/NGO/7.
Feel free to send it to your governments and national authorities, to ensure they are aware that civil society is monitoring them, and ensure they take action to improve access to cannabis for patients! In case you are not aware of relevant government authorities’ in charge of “drug control” in your country, you can find their contact on this list (from last year though). You can also find here contacts of the Embassy of your country in Vienna, Austria (where the UN headquarters hosting the vote is located).
Otherwise, feel free to share broadly this statement to your contact lists, media, social media, but also during family time and everywhere such a broadly-supported statement can help change minds… and policies!
To date, there have been a total of 193 NGO signing, from 52 different countries!
