Rationale
The recent emergence of novel (or new) psychoactive substances (NPS), combined with the ability of the
Internet to disseminate information quickly, have raised a number of challenges in the fields of drug policies,
substance use research and public health across the EU and internationally. Despite increasing amount of
attention being given to this area, these new emerging products, often unregulated and sold online as ‘legal’
and ‘safer’ alternatives to traditional illicit drugs, are rarely mentioned in scientific literature, and there is
limited information available on their nature and potential risks. The EU early‐warning system, operated
by the EMCDDA, currently monitors over 300 new drugs. These include derivatives of phenethylamines,
tryptamines, piperazines and cathinones, as well as synthetic cannabinoids and a small number of herbal
substances that can produce psychoactive effects. Such a phenomenon highlights the importance of multinational and multi-disciplinary collaboration in order to enhance knowledge and improve the quality of
information sharing and good practices at a global level.
Objectives
The main objectives of this conference are:
• sharing accurate, evidence-based information on NPS and latest trends of misuse;
• improving understanding of treatment and management approaches for patients with levels of clinical and/
or behavioural toxicity associated with NPS use;
• assessing psychiatric consequences of NPS use and related behavioural addictions;
• developing innovative prevention measures especially for vulnerable individuals;
• raising awareness and contributing to the development of effective prevention messages;
• exploring socio-cultural factors underlying risky behaviours;
• contributing to the development of an international platform and other technological solutions for rapid
information sharing;
• networking and providing the opportunity to meet renowned experts in the field
