What we do?
Training, Expertise and Communication
The main objective of the Training, Expertise and Communication Department is to increase knowledge on harm reduction among professionals. This goal is to be obtained by gathering, analysing and processing knowledge and insights compiled by the Outreach and Information and the International Department. After the information that is obtained from working with substance users is analysed and processed, this knowledge is shared with the rest of the organisation in the form of specific methods and instruments for harm reduction. The Training, Expertise and Communication Department makes this knowledge accessible to policymakers and professionals via training courses and curricula. It also works on promoting knowledge, specific methods and instruments by sharing it with national networks, the media, government bodies and ministries, and via the Mainline website.
