International Drug Conference:‘’Drug Enforcement in Turkey And The World’’
International Drug Conference:
‘’Drug Enforcement in Turkey And The World’’
With the development of technology, the impact of globalization, the acceleration of social change, and the fact that drug trafficking is at the for efront of terrorist organizations' most important funding sources, it is observed that drug use spreads world wide and the starting age of druguse is gradually declining. Moreover, it appears that this problem is not specific to major countries, and almost every country in the world has to fight against the drug problem.
The drug problem is particularly targeted at the younger generation of societies and there fore poses a significant threat to the future of societies as well as leading to important current problems in terms of the countries. Not only does it affect the physical and mental health of individuals, it also creates significant social and economic problems in countries as well as social and economic losses. Investigations show that the financing of blood yacts by terrorist organizations in many countries is also achieved through significant drug trade.
When considered as an international problem;the geo political position of Turkey makes it one of the transition points for drug trafficking. Especially after the year 2011, Turkey has become one of the target countries in terms of synthetic drugs. This situation demands that drug enforcement should be dealt with global cooperation. Another important element in the struggle is that it is not enough for law enforcement and public institution stomake efforts on this problem in the countries. The work carried out through non-governmental organization sand the media, and the raising of social awareness through these activitie sand the creation of public opinion are other important elements in the struggle.
