The European Commission (Directorate General for Justice, Freedom and Security) is organising a two day conference on "Bridging the Research Gap in the Field of Illicit Drugs in the EU" on 24 and 25 September 2009 in Brussels. The conference will be opened by Jacques Barrot, Vice President of the European Commission.
The conference will take stock of research in the field of illicit drugs in the EU, through a strategic look at future research needs and how EU coordination and cooperation could be improved to strengthen research capacity in this field. To do this, the conference will bring together some 200 policy makers, researchers, and research funding organisations from across the EU together with representatives from international organisations and EU institutions.
