Despite modest progress in mainstreaming gender considerations in areas such as development and security policy, gender is chronically overlooked in drug policy design, implementation, monitoring and evaluation. States are rarely held accountable by drug policy institutions or donors for their failure to respect international treaty obligations in relation to women and girls. The paucity of research and data on the diversity of women’s experience of the illegal drug economy and of

The Workshop drug policy enforcement compounds the weakness of gender sensitive approaches and impedes the building of a gendered evidence base to advance future policy reform strategies and mitigate current policy impacts.

Critical perspectives on drug policy rarely address current failings through a gendered or intersectional lens, and the ‘silo’ nature of the drug policy ‘issue’ has led to the neglect of bridge building opportunities with academic, policy and NGO communities working on gender issues

2 The Workshop (criminal justice, race, political economy). Similarly, the academic community rarely engages with drug policy as a case study of egregious gendered and human rights impacts. Even within the drug policy community, coordination and communication between those working on treatment and those working on criminal justice issues is often lacking.

With this in mind, we bring together a diverse group of experts and practitioners for a three-day intensive workshop at Central European University’s School of Public Policy in Budapest between 11 and 13 September 2017. The workshop is a closed, invitation-only event that will aim to: • fertilize critiques of drug policy with conceptual, theoretical and practitioner learning from gender, development and security studies and rights based approaches; • discuss the ‘state of the art’ in terms of research, data and information on the role of women and girls in illegal drug economies; • analyze current research on the impacts of drug policy enforcement on women and girls in areas that include security, criminal justice, health, social services and recovery; and • identify the most salient gaps in research, and strategies to address them.

3 OUTPUTS

First, an edited collection on the Gendered Impacts of Drug Policy. This publication will bring together academics, practitioners and activists. Edited collections are unfortunately neglected by many academic colleagues under pressure to produce monographs and peer-reviewed journal articles, while policy and activist colleagues have focused on accessible pamphlets, reports and brochures. We propose to maximize the best of both approaches and produce an accessible paperback with the possibility of extensive market reach and translation. In order to The Workshop accelerate this process and enable us to telescope iteration and writing up, we will be joined by a facilitator from Biggerplate (https://www. biggerplate.com) with whom the workshop organizer, Julia Buxton, recently enjoyed the most productive, time effi cient and intellectually coherent workshop of her professional career.

Second, a policy document that will draw together the key fi ndings of the workshop and which will be intended for presentation and contribution to policy discussions at national, regional and international levels. Third, the workshop will produce a syllabus for teaching and advocacy on the gendered impacts of drug policy for use both in academic settings and short course learning environments.

It is almost standard to suggest that further outputs will be sustainable

networks and/or future conference proposals, so we take these as given but with a strong emphasis on discussing how we can make these happen.

PARTICIPANTS’ PROFILE AND CONTRIBUTIONS

This is a closed, invitation-only workshop. All participants were carefully chosen on the basis of their proven academic or professional contributions to the fi eld of gender and drug policy. With a view of supporting inter- regional and international experience sharing and collaboration, we intended to invite the experts from around the world.

We aim to structure a fully collaborative environment, in which parti- cipants can be confi dent in sharing, challenging and elaborating core ideas and concepts. Due to excellent technology resources at CEU, we will bring some colleagues in remotely to maximize our geographic reach.

5 WORKSHOP STRUCTURE

Each session will be led by discussants (approximately 15 minutes per discussant) in order to frame assessment through reference to current research and advocacy. We acknowledge that the session delineations set out below are somewhat arbitrary and that there are overlaps across Schedule all of the separate sessions. As such, we expect to move backwards and forwards across themes and issue areas and do not expect or encourage sessions to be seen in isolation.

PROGRAM

All invited workshop participants have a broad range of (geographical and thematic) skills, knowledge, expertise and engagement so we strongly encourage broad participation in each of the sessions in order to provide real depth and richness to our discussion and analysis of: a) what we know about gender, the illicit drug economy and counter narcotics impacts; b) how the gendered dimensions of risk and vulnerability are evidenced; and c) how we can share research, best practice, lessons learned and advance a policy reform agenda.

The scheduling aims to maximize the engagement of all participants. We have divided sessions into morning and afternoon, each starting with a panel discussion followed by an opening out of the conversation after the coffee break. The panel discussions aim at amplifying the space for participants to share their professional experience and insights.

Please note that the workshop will be opened to the public on Day 2, as we plan to invite students and the wider CEU community to a lecture entitled “Learning from the Latin American experience: policy and advocacy advancements for incarcerated female drug offenders.” 6 SKYPE INTERVENTION LEAD DISCUSSANTS Thegenderedaspectsofcultivation,production,distributionand Session 2 2.30–5.00pm 1.30–2.30pm SKYPE INTERVENTIONS LEAD DISCUSSANTS Understandingthegenderedaspectsofdrugconsumption.Women Session 1 11.00am–1.30pm LEAD DISCUSSANTS Whatisagenderperspective andhowhasagenderedperspective Framingtheworkshop 9.30–10.45am Julia Housekeeping,participantintroductionsandoverviewofworkshopaims BUXTON 9.00–9.30am Day 1:Monday, 11September Chontit CHUENURAH Julia BUXTON Marcela MUÑOZ Pien METAAL Maria-Goretti ANE Dasha OCHERET drug supply. traffi drug use;genderspecifi drivers ofconsumption;changestodemographyandgeography and girlsasconsumers:prevalence,drugtypesadministration; evaluation, researchandadvocacy? been (ornotbeen)incorporatedintodrugpolicydesign,monitoring, cking activities;womenandgirlsinthepoliticaleconomyof Lunch l JenniferFLEETWOOD l l RebeccaSCHLEIFER GrahamHUGHES l GiavanaMARGO

PERSONAL SAFETY AND SECURITY

Budapest is a safe city but as with other popular tourist destinations you need to be vigilant. There are three risks that we want to alert you to: Do not hail a cab on the street; call a cab. A reliable company is CITY TAXI, at +36 1 211 1111. Make sure the meter is set at the pickup rate of 470 HUF before you begin any journey. Shops, bars, and restaurants may give the wrong change as a result of frequent visitor confusion over the multiple zeros in the currency. Logistical information MEDICAL CARE

19 Q&A ON CENTRAL EUROPEAN UNIVERSITY (CEU) IN THE NEWS

1. Given the recent controversy around closing Central European University, will the workshop take place? Yes. As CEU President and Rector Michael Ignatieff has repeatedly stated, CEU will continue all of its current academic activities as a free and independent graduate university.

2. Is it true that CEU does not comply with Hungarian higher education regulations? This is patently false. CEU has been operating legally in Hungary for over two decades.

3. Will CEU remain an independent institution able to exercise its academic freedom? Logistical information A crucial part of higher education is the ability of students and professors to be free to research the topics of their choice in an open environment that welcomes debate and discussion. As CEU President and Rector Michael Ignatieff wrote in his New York Times op-ed on 3 April 2017, “Central European University, its board and its administration will never surrender its academic freedom to anyone.”

4. Will CEU’s international faculty, its curriculum or the quality of education be compromised? Absolutely not. The quality of our programs and curriculum is well- known throughout Europe and the world. CEU’s academic programs are ranked highly by Times Higher Education and QS Rankings Worldwide. CEU is recognized as the 39th best young university in the world according to the latest Times Higher Education ranking, pub- lished on 5 April 2017. 20 In addition, our degree programs in the fi elds of politics and international studies were ranked 42nd in the world according to the latest Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) subject ranking, as announced on 8 March 2017. CEU faculty remain dedicated to providing this high level of academic excellence.

5. Is it safe for me to travel to Budapest to attend the workshop? It is absolutely safe for you to travel to Budapest. We encourage all participants to enjoy their stay but we do advise everyone to take responsibility for their own safety. As usual, travelers should always be aware of their surroundings and take caution if necessary. While CEU staff are not in a position to produce regular updates, we will review security information on a regular basis in advance of the workshop and, should any serious issues come to light, circulate it among participants both prior and during the workshop. We will in particular draw participants’ attention to any incidents or potential threats (such as large-scale demonstrations) in the vicinity of CEU and hotels. Logistical information

6. How can I show my support for CEU? First, thank you for your support! We ask you to visit the website https://www.ceu. edu/taxonomy/term/380 for ideas on how to show your support.
