Moreover, the text suggests that the issue should be addressed with an integrated approach between different fields, such as health, public security, social assistance and justice, among others, which should conduct interventions with shared responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>According to Camila Asano, coordinator of programs at Conectas, today\u2019s vote is important because it brings the discussion on the negative impact of the war on drugs into the realm of human rights in the UN.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDiscussions on drugs are generally restricted to specific forums where the vision of the war on drugs prevails, like UNODC [United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime], which deals with crimes and illegal substances,\u201d said Asano. \u201cThis resolution will play an essential role in reinforcing the need to conduct a study that shows the impacts of the drug problem on a more global level,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>In 2015, the Council approved the first resolution on this topic that requested that the High Commissioner draft a report on the matter that will be examined in more depth by the new resolution. The research will take into account standards and indicators defined in consultation with member states, civil society, UNODC and other stakeholders in the field of drugs.<\/p>\n<\/div><div
