DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe United Nations has set an objective to make significant progress towards the control and supply of illicit drugs by the year 2008. This objective can only be achieved by giving demand as much attention as supply and on the basis of regular assessments of the drug problem. This report aims to contribute to such assessments by presenting supply and demand statistics and analysis on the evolution of the global illicit drug problem. It is based on data obtained primarily from the annual reports questionnaire (ARQ) sent by governments to the United Nations Drug Control Programme (UNDCP) in 1999, supplemented by other sources when necessary and when available. The UNDCP finds these data sources limited in that the ARQ reporting is not systematic enough, both in terms of numbers of countries responding and of content, and, most countries lack adequate monitoring systems to produce reliable, comprehensive and internationally comparable data. The report includes an analysis of the current situation and tables of estimates covering production, trafficking and consumption.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe World Drug Report presents comprehensive information on the illicit drug situation. It provides detailed estimates and trends on production, trafficking and consumption in the opium/heroin, coca/cocaine, cannabis and amphetamine-type stimulants markets. The drug problem is being contained but there are warning signs that the stabilization which has occurred over the last few years could be in danger. Notable amongst these is the increase in both opium poppy and coca cultivation in 2007, some growth in consumption in developing countries and some development of new trafficking patterns. There have also been encouraging contractions in some of the main consumer markets. This year, almost one hundred years since the Shanghai Opium Commission in 1909, the Report presents an historical review of the development of the international drug control system.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis report, based on data obtained primarily from the annual reports questionnaires (ARQ) received by UNDCP in 2001, presents not only the supply side data but also the demand side data, in an effort to give a balanced approach in the assessment of the drug problem. In addressing the global trends in illicit drug supply and trafficking, the report discusses cultivation, manufacture, trafficking routes, methods of transportation and seizures. On the demand side, the report focuses on global trends, the extent of drug abuse, drug abuse among youth and prison populations, modes of intake and costs and the consequences of drug abuse. Comprehensive statistical tables, presented for multiple years, will greatly facilitate comparative studies.
