Implications of the COVID-19 pandemic to problematic drug use and Harm Reduction

This project is promoted by the Research Centre for Human Development of the Catholic University of Portugal at Porto in partnership with GAT – Grupo de Ativistas em Tratamentos and has an expected duration of 8 months.

This qualitative research project intends to produce evidences about the drug-related risks that emerge or are aggravated during the covid-19 pandemic outbreak. It aims also to describe and map the measures and intervention strategies implemented by the Harm Reduction teams and professionals, in Lisbon and Porto, to minimize the impacts of covid-19 among their target-groups.
