The World Federation Against Drugs (WFAD) is a multilateral community of non-governmental organisations and individuals. We share a common concern that illicit drug use is threatening the existence of stable families, communities, and government institutions throughout the world.

WFAD regards the non-medicinal use of narcotic substances as a severe public health problem which results in major problems for society. Countries have worked together for more than one hundred years in order to prevent the problem of non-medical use of narcotic drugs.

The aim of WFAD is to work for a drug-free world. The members of WFAD share a common concern that illicit drug use is undercutting traditional values and threatening the existence of stable families, communities, and government institutions throughout the world.
