DRUG USE HARM REDUCTION


Reportage at Pause Diabolo, a risk reduction centre for drug users, in Lyon, France. Pause Diabolo sees drug users as part of a national French policy to reduce health hazards. This multidisciplinary helps deals with all aspects of life that are affected by drug use. It involves making risk reduction equipment available, helping with access to care, hygiene help, social mediation and helping gain access to benefits as well as social and professional reintegration. Pause Diabolo links up with a network of chemists who offer a service of changing kits in the relevant pharmacies (PEKO). The centre provides the pharmacies with steriboxes and collects used drug equipment that has been brought to the pharmacy. An educator sticks Peko stickers onto the kits.
