The Civil Society Forum on Drugs, an expert group of the European Commission, is currently accepting applications from eligible European civil society organisations for a case study project about positive and challenging examples in the field of drug policy.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Introduction <\/strong><\/p>\n

This call is issued by the Civil Society Forum on Drugs (CSFD). The CSFD is an expert group to the European Commission. Its membership comprises 45 civil society organisations (CSOs) coming from across Europe and representing a variety of fields of drug policy, and a variety of stances within those fields. Its purpose is to provide a broad platform for a structured dialogue between the Commission and the European civil society which supports drug policy formulation and implementation through practical advice. The momentum for the CSFD\u2019s formation can be traced back to the Green Paper on the Role of Civil Society in Drugs Policy in the European Union.<\/p>\n

As part of its work in 2018 and 2019, the CSFD is seeking to stimulate implementation of the EU Action Plan on Drugs at national level, and with particular reference to the work of CSOs. The Action Plan has been adopted by all EU Member States and is a great achievement both for its progressive content and for the meaningful involvement of civil society in its preparation. To enhance understanding of, and focus on, the EU Action Plan at national level, the CSFD will work to identify case studies of CSO involvement in drug policy at a national level. The case studies will highlight both examples of good practice and examples of challenges in CSO engagement.<\/p>\n

Background Information<\/strong><\/p>\n

CSOs play a vital role in the implementation of drug policies. An involved civil society can bring new information to decision-makers in a variety of ways, including through research, experience working in close contact with particular populations and through bringing diverse opinions and ideas (1). The Pompidou Group (2016) has noted that CSOs bring \u201cknowledge and independent expertise to the process of decision making and policy making\u201d (2). This can add to policy-makers\u2019 understanding of an
\n\u2018on the ground\u2019 environment which is often in flux. Greer et al (2017) note that civil society delivers things that state, market and family cannot deliver (3), and working to increase communication between these areas will allow policy makers to benefit from CSO experience, allowing policy to be informed by those who are most familiar with the daily realities of working under existing policy structures. Additionally, research from other policy arenas indicates that good civil society involvement can create a better acceptance of policies \u2013 when civil society is involved, popular legitimacy increases (4). The process can be perceived as more transparent and accountable \u2013 important features of good governance. As the Pompidou Group (2016) has noted, civil society involvement creates added value to the policy and planning process itself, \u2018enhancing the legitimacy, quality, and understanding and longer term applicability of the policy initiative\u2019 (5.) Thus, a structured and formal engagement of civil society can better equip states to plan, implement and measure policy initiatives, thus directly contributing to national and EU drugs strategy objectives.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, in the CSFD\u2019s experience, the degree of civil society involvement in the formation and implementation of drug policies at national level can often be limited. There are likely a variety of reasons for this, including a lack of awareness, knowledge and experience among both policy makers and CSOs as to the value civil society involvement can bring to policy processes. The CSFD is committed to working towards improving this situation, and this call forms part of that work.<\/p>\n

What is the call about?<\/p>\n

This call is aimed at civil society organisations (6) operating in the area of drugs and drug policy across Europe (7). We are looking to identify eight case studies in total \u2013 four each in two categories. The two categories are:<\/p>\n

1. Case studies of positive CSO engagement in policy processes at national level. Case studies in this area will be will be described and shared as good practice examples.
\n2. Case studies of challenges in implementing the EU Action Plan on Drugs at the national level. Case studies in this area will be described and the relevant CSOs supported to develop and implement advocacy strategies, which will serve as example and can support similar activities in other countries.<\/p>\n

For both categories, applicant CSOs should be:
\n– be legal entities that are capable of drawing down funds from state and EU sources
\n– be incorporated in a European (EU member state, accession, candidate or potential candidate) country<\/p>\n

Further specific criteria for each category are set out below.<\/p>\n

\n6 For the purposes of this call, \u2018civil society\u2019 is defined using the definition suggested by the Council’s Horizontal Drugs Group in its thematic debate on the subject in September 2005 was \u201c the associational life operating in the space between the state and market, including individual participation, and the activities of non-governmental, voluntary and community organisations \u201d. The call is aimed at civil society organisations and thus excludes individuals. Applicants should be non-governmental, voluntary and community organisations operating in the space between state and market and focused on drug policy.
\n7 \u2018Europe\u2019 in this context includes member states of the European Union, as well as candidate and potential candidate countries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
