Flawed approaches in global drug policy are having negative and disproportionate impacts on women. In this episode, Julia Buxton explores how and why drug policy is formed and unravels the ways this plays out in the context of women’s lives – from the stigma and shame experienced by women involved in drugs to the challenges they face in accessing appropriate treatment and services and the punitive sentences imposed on them for drug related offences. This highlights what is really important for effective drug policy reform - better engagement with women who have lived experiences as stakeholders.
To understand more about global drug policy and its impacts on women, and to read some of the lived experiences of women that are mentioned in the episode, here is the link to The Impact of Global Drug Policy on Women: Shifting the Needle, https://www.emerald.com/insight/publication/doi/10.1108/9781839828829

2020 has been rough. How have companies adapted to the social and political climate of the last year to better serve consumers and employees? How are they looking ahead?
The past 12 months have seen major changes to how people are both working and consuming. Because of the pandemic and lockdowns, not only are we were forced to rethink where we work, but also how to balance our personal life with our professional life. Additionally, more than ever, consumers and employees are demanding companies take action on huge issues like climate change and racial justice.
To discuss these challenges and opportunities we're joined by leading experts Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic and Betsy Reed.
The Knowledge Exchange Framework, or KEF, asks universities to think about how they evaluate and communicate their third mission: the process of sharing of ideas, research skills and experience with the wider world through knowledge exchange. KEF was announced in 2017 and has fostered a lot of lively debate within the higher education community ever since. To understand more about KEF, we asked three knowledge exchange professionals to take us through the development of KEF’s first iteration, its role in helping universities understand their own performance and the implications for universities and researchers.
