The meeting had participants from WHO, INCB, and AFDRAN. The meeting was the opening session for a project in Eastern Africa to
enhance the implementation of licit drug control. A substantial part
of the meeting was devoted to issues related with the computerization of
licit drug control activities. It was recommended by the
participants of the meeting to implement NDS in four Eastern African
countries as a pilot project within the region with the intention of
implementing the system in all of the region at a later stage. The countries
selected by the project for the first phase are: Ethiopia, Kenya,
Tanzania, and Uganda. |
