Seminars and Proceedings
Since the establishing of the Beckley Foundation in 1998, Amanda has drawn together high-level academics from different disciplines, together with politicians and policy experts, to discuss drug policy and science in a confidential setting.
The Beckley Foundation was at the forefront of the creation of an evidence-base for the development of new drug policies.

Now, the principle of evidence-based drug policy is widely accepted.
Proceedings documents for the seminars are available to download from the boxes above.
