The Guide is designed to be suitable for countries and
communities at all levels of health development, including those with
limited resources and experience in drug abuse epidemiology. It provides
technical guidance to countries and communities in all aspects of drug
abuse epidemiology in order to address emerging and changing problems
associated with drug use.
