<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
I would like to address you with an
important question. Shall we include Medical Marijuana issue inside
of the <a href="http://hrconvention.org/portal/charter">text of our Convention</a>?
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
We have there variety of Harm Reduction
programs. Programs that in some cases would be impossible from
effectively implement without decriminalization/<wbr></wbr>depenelisation of
possession for personal use.
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
But shall we also address painful issue
of medical marijuana? Shall we guarantee rights to this
unconventional medicine for patients that are lacking it desperately? Is not medical marijuana another
form of reducing harms? Reducing pains?</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
There are no many occasions to amendment
international laws and maybe in this one we are creating is a right also
to take care of marijuana patients?
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
If so, in what form we shall express
our support? How the medical marijuana point shall be encoded in our
Convention? Please think little bit on this issue and <a href="mailto:info@hrconvention.org">make your proposal before November 2016.</a></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
We are waiting for your comments.
Please distribute this letter widely to all interested parties.</div>

<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
More than 55 years have passed since UN have adopted the Single Convention on
Narcotic Drugs and almost three decades since its last update. Since
then, many things have changed. Illicit drugs, instead of disappearing,
have become a wide and mass experience. Unfortunately, it resulted in
many casualties because of many reasons, like Hepatitis C and
AIDS, that has taken its deadly harvest.</div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
From
that moment mankind has developed new ways of handling the drug issues.
Harm Reduction has started just as a brave idea, but now has become
a leading ideology in the Western world. Still though, even in the
European Union, some of the Member States from Central and Eastern
Europe are denying its effectiveness in tackling harms made by
consumption of narcotic drugs.</div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
For
that reason, we in Europe and beyond, need a single act - a set of obligations for international community- that would
unite the continent and the whole world so that the Harm Reduction would become a standard. Many, not only
in Asia or Africa, are still denied access to basic Harm Reduction
services like needle exchange or methadone therapy.</div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
On
the other hand, more progressive countries are introducing Harm
Reduction measures such as drug consumption rooms or even heroine
distribution. Activities, that in the light of UN Drug Convention, are
somehow in the 'gray zone'.</div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
There
is also an issue of cannabis. Relative harmless drug for possession of
which users are still punished, sometimes even in the prison terms.</div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
And
that is why we are coming with the idea of the Harm Reduction
Convention, that would be at the beginning introduced by the Council of
Europe and the European Union to later become the fourth Convention on
Narcotic Drugs.</div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
We
are just on the beginning of long road towards this goal and we need
Your help in that. As the very first step of our action, we have started
public consultations on the draft of the core text of the Harm
Reduction Convention. We believe that a lot of you have a lot of
knowledge and experience in <span style="font-size: 12.8px;">Harm Reduction and Drug Policy and therefore we are asking you to join us in this fight for the greater good.</span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: 12.8px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
Please,
read the original text of our proposal, discuss it among your members
and send us your comments, corrections and proposals at the address: <a href="mailto:consultations@hrconvention.org" target="_blank">consultations@hrconve<wbr></wbr>ntion.org</a>.</div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: 12.8px; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
We
ask you to help us and if you for some reasons do not want or cannot
join our team, we understand, but would be thankful for distributing
this letter to your acquaintances and friendly organizations.</div>

Our mission is to create the Harm Reduction Charter that will be for drug users like the Human Rights Charter for the common people. It will guarantee all drug users equal access to various Harm Reduction programs. It will also guarantee that non-one is punished or criminalized for simple possession of illicit drugs for personal use.</div>

We are informal group of organizations and individuals working for Harm Reduction and Drug Policy Reform in Europe and beyond. Our goal is not to setup a new organization. We will work, as informal umbrella group to introduce the Harm Reduction Charter.</div>
<div class="western" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px; line-height: 18.48px; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">

In our work we will focus first on the European continent to later introduce the Harm Reduction Charter to the United Nations. We will work with various governmental institutions and governments itself to enact the Harm Reduction Charter in their national and international legislations.</div>
<div class="western" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px; line-height: 18.48px; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">

The Harm Reduction Charter is not a unified drug policy. Instead is a set of recommendations established to harmonize national and international drug policies in the countries all over the world.</div>
<div class="western" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px; line-height: 18.48px; margin-bottom: 0cm; text-align: justify;">

Our ultimate goal is to introduce Harm Reduction Charter, as new International Convention on Drugs but we will first focus on the work with the Council of Europe, European Parliament and European Commission.</div>
