One-day drug prevention workshop for university students 22 November 2024

University students are crucial in youth-led drug prevention. A one-day workshop on this topic was conducted by NDDCB PET at Wickramarachchi University, Colombo, based on the principles of the UPC Co-Practitioner Curriculum.

A group of 60 students participated and discussed the etiological model of disease transmission through participatory learning.

We would like to thank Colombo Plan DAP and ISSUP International, as well as INL USA, for introducing these courses to Sri Lanka and training the PET section of the NDDCB.
