European Research Area Network on Illicit Drugs

European Research Area Network on Illicit Drugs (ERANID) is an international consortium consisting of eleven organisations from six collaborating EU countries (Belgium, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal and the United Kingdom). The main goal of ERANID is to enhance capability and capacity in EU drug research by improving coordination, cooperation and synergies between national and regional funding programmes. ERANID commissioned the development of the Strategic Research Agenda (SRA) that resulted in de development of two calls for research proposals in 2015 and 2016. These calls yielded 7 international research projects.

In October 2019, 3 projects will be finished and 4 projects will start their final year of research. Lisbon addictions 2019 would be a great opportunity to share the results of the 7 research projects and discuss the implications for reserach and policy with the audience.
