S6E5 - Expanding Harm-Reduction Education and Youth Participation

In this episode, Theo Di Castri and Geras reflect on the inaugural year of Catalyst, an innovative drug education program that engages youth at the front lines of the war on drugs in transformative and sustainable grassroots action. In his field note, “Catalyst: Expanding Harm-Reduction Education and Youth Participation in the Context of the War on Drugs,” Di Castri explores how Catalyst’s approach to drug education generates a wider discussion of the sociopolitical harm wrought by the war on drugs and calls young people to action. Behind the Pages, the podcast of the Journal on Education in Emergencies (JEiE), features exciting and timely conversations with JEiE authors about their work on education in regions affected by crisis and conflict.
