There are still several countries implementing the death penalty for drug trafficking, including Singapore, China, Thailand, Indonesia, and Vietnam. Despite the calls by international agencies to shut them down, there are still hundreds of thousands of people forced into so-called &#8220;compulsory drug treatment centres,&#8221; which are essentially concentration camps, where people are held without a trial, tortured, starved, and forced to work for private companies. In Indonesia, if you don&#8217;t report that your relative or loved one is a drug user, you face criminal charges yourself. In the Philippines, 30 thousand people were murdered by police squads and vigilantes after president Duterte called on people to kill drug users. Similar happened in Thailand in the early \u201800s, when more than 3000 people were murdered by police.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this environment, even the existence of drug user groups is a miraculous and heroic achievement. Two of our episode&#8217;s interviewees, <strong>Anand Chabungbam<\/strong> and <strong>Bikas Gurung<\/strong>, work at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.anpud.org\/about-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Asian Network of People who Use Drugs<\/a>. Their work focuses on supporting user groups, and they have managed to call attention to the human rights violations that people who use drugs face, and to advocate for their rights at the national, regional, and international level. In India, <strong>Simon W. Beddoe<\/strong> with his colleagues at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/category\/Community\/Indian-Harm-Reduction-Network-IHRN-174040562637768\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Indian Harm Reduction Association<\/a> and other groups, managed to scale up harm reduction services. In Indonesia, <strong>Edo Agustian<\/strong> with his former organisation <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/drugusermovement\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PKNI<\/a> entered into a dialogue with the government and (among other things) made hepatitis C treatment much more widely available for people who use drugs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting on Monday, 6th of July 2020, we publish one episode per week for 10 weeks. The episodes follow the timeline of the development of the movement of people who use drugs from Amsterdam to Afghanistan and globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The production of the series has been a great adventure. We conducted 34 video interviews in 20 countries around the world. 8 interviews were filmed by the Rights Reporter Foundation, the rest by members of our <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/drogriporter.hu\/en\/category\/drugreporter-video-advocacy-network\/\" target=\"_blank\">Drugreporter Video Advocacy Network<\/a>, video activists, and freelance videographers worldwide.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-very-light-gray-background-color has-background\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hiv2020.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"949\" height=\"351\" src=\"https:\/\/drogriporter.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/07\/hiv2020.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13374\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drogriporter.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/07\/hiv2020.png 949w, https:\/\/drogriporter.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/07\/hiv2020-300x111.png 300w, https:\/\/drogriporter.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/8\/2020\/07\/hiv2020-768x284.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 949px) 100vw, 949px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The documentary series is part of the online conference &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hiv2020.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HIV 2020: Community Reclaiming the Global Response<\/a>&#8221; which runs from July through October of 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An alliance of global key population-led networks, networks of people living with HIV, treatment activists, and our supporters, has formed to organize an alternative international community-led online event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The HIV2020 alliance has decided to organize the community-led event to provide an alternative for individuals who cannot or will participate in the AIDS2020 virtual conference.
