Th e diplomacy of the country is mainly employed with restrictive punishments; including the lack of medical treatment available for prisoners. Th e lack of services available in drug-rehabilitation and psychological de-toxication is making most of the users to turn away from distrusted sources. Furthermore, the efforts aimed at the containment of peril are under attack. Th e situation of efforts directed towards drug prevention is in the same conjecture.

In this article we present the main achievements since its ten year inception of the IZ, the prolific professional achievements, as well as highlighting a few of the insightful data from the research provided by the fieldwork performed at several festivals.
