On November 10, 2023, within the framework of the implementation of the Anti-Drug Programme by the Cabinet of Ministers of the Kyrgyz Republic, the Service for Combating Illicit Drug Trafficking of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MoI) of the Kyrgyz Republic, in collaboration with the OSCE Programme Office in Bishkek, convened a roundtable discussion for students of the Faculty of Law at the Kyrgyz-Russian Slavic University. The focal theme of the discussion was "Prevention of Drug Use Among Young People."
Cholpon Tabaldieva, a representative of the Service for Combating Illicit Drug Trafficking of the MoI and Shamshybek Mamyrov, national consultant of the OSCE Programme Office in Bishkek, delivered a guest lecture on healthy lifestyle among students to foster an attitude of intolerance towards drugs.
The anticipated outcome of the roundtable is that participating students will acquire knowledge on the adverse effects and repercussions of drug abuse. It is expected that these students will subsequently disseminate this knowledge among their peers. The initiative aims to contribute to the broader awareness and understanding of the issues surrounding drug abuse among the youth.
