University of Basrah Holds a Workshop on Integrating Recovering Addicts into Society
The College of Marine Sciences at the University of Basrah organized a workshop addressing the social stigma surrounding drug addiction and its impact on societal integration.
The workshop aims to raise awareness about the importance of reintegrating recovering addicts into society by educating the public and providing them with educational, employment, and housing opportunities, which help mitigate the negative effects of stigma.
The workshop included a lecture delivered by judicial expert Bassam Muftan Al-Lami, who highlighted the experiences of recovering addicts and the increasing rates of relapse resulting from society’s lack of acceptance.
