The SHARE 2 ACT project is aimed at enhancing the skills and competences of professionals working in the field of drugs and addictions through the exchange of best practices in prevention, treatment, social inclusion, harm reduction and other tools. The specific objectives of the project are: 1.To collect best practices related to work with people with problematic drug use and/or non-substance addictions, with a high degree of replicability. 2.To disseminate the best practices among professionals working with drug users and people with non-substance addictions at national, European and international levels.With the above in mind, our main target group are professionals from social organisations working in the field of drugs and addictions. The project will be secondarily targeted to professionals from public bodies as well as policy makers.Due to the characteristics of the partnership, we expect to reach out professionals from civil society organisations and public administrations outside the EU, mainly in Latin America, Russia, Asia and the Middle East. The main outcome of the project will be the publication of the Manual of Best Practices for Professionals Working with People with Problematic Consumption of Drugs and/or Addictions, which is intended to be a practical and useful document with at least 25 best practices with a practical approach and a methodology that assures the high quality and innovativeness of the practices. The S2A Manual will be online edited and will be disseminated in more than 1,000 organisations in Europe and Latin America, taking advantage of the networks of the partners. The S2A Manual will include best practices for both drug consumption and addictive behaviours. These best practices will comprise at least one the following topics on which intervention with people who are using drugs or have addictions are commonly based: a.Preventionb.Treatmentc.Social Inclusiond.Harm Reductione.Other(s): Training (Face-to-Face/Online), Counselling (Face-to-Face/Online), Advocacy, Development Cooperation, etc.Another important outcome is the SHARE 2 ACT Project’ Website, which will be the information hub of the project, as well as the repository for the S2A Manual and any other material from the project (leaflet, newsletters, etc). The S2A website will include information as well from the partners. Together with the website, a specific profile of the project will be created in Facebook and LinkedIn, to ensure a wider dissemination of the outcomes of the project. In order to achieve the set objectives, the project activities are designed in such a way that the specific results for the partnership organisations, the stakeholders, the final target groups and the society in general are fulfilled. The methodology proposed by the S2A project is its main innovative bid. In line with the recommendations of the World Health Organisation regarding good practice in intervention with drug-dependent persons and people with non-substance addictions, the S2A methodology will be guided by principles, objectives and procedures based on scientific evidence and on contrasted and agreed theoretical positions, which have yielded positive results in practice and demonstrated their effectiveness and usefulness in a specific context (WHO/PAHO).The consortium of the SHARE 2 ACT Project is made up of 5 organisations. It is leaded by the Ibero-American Network of NGOs Working in the Field of Drugs and Addictions (RIOD, Spain), networks such as FEDITO BXL (Belgium), Correlation (Netherlands) and Federación Enlace (Spain), together with the organisation Diogenis (Greece). The consortium has the capacity for advocacy and to politically influence public institutions that develop drug policies and other policies oriented towards the control and reduction of addictions, and on the other hand, to reach out to a large number of organisations both in their own countries and regions, that work directly with the final beneficiary population (drug users and people with addictions) and at the European and international level (mainly Latin America, Asia and the Middle East).
