International drug control

In 2008, the United Nations, through the Commission on Narcotic Drugs, the International Narcotics Control Board (incb) and the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (unodc), continued to strengthen international cooperation in countering the world drug problem. Activities focused on carrying out the 1998 Action Plan against Illicit Manufacture, Trafficking and Abuse of Amphetamine-type Stimulants and Their Precursors; the 1998 Action Plan on International Cooperation on the Eradication of Illicit Drug Crops and on Alternative Development; and the 1999 Action Plan for the Implementation of the Declaration on the Guiding Principles of Drug Demand Reduction.
