The Geneva Platform on Human Rights, Health and Psychoactive Substances, supported by the GREA and the Institute of Global Health of the University of Geneva, will hold the Geneva Drug Policy Week from 24to 28 June 2019. This portrait was taken by Tony Fouhse during the nine months he helped and photographed heroin addict Stephanie M. Just before she was to enter a rehab program Stephanie developed an abscess in her brain, underwent brain surgery and ended up living with Tony and his wife while she withdrew from heroin. Here, Stephanie sleeps peacefully after 8 days of withdrawal.
The Canton of Geneva, through its international solidarity fund, supports the Geneva Platform on Human Rights, Health and Psychoactive Substances.
