Abstract

Brief from Drug Advisory Programme, the Colombo Plan

Highlights

  • Despite the availability of international research journals on substance abuse, there is a distinct gap between what is being reported by the research experts and the transfer of this into practice

  • Recognising the large gaps persisting among the policy, practices and research in the substance use disorders, the Colombo Plan has taken a lead in advancing the linkages among research and practice by producing an international journal

  • The experts are of the view that the dissemination of research findings in the drugs field, as in science in general, should be mainly achieved through the publication of articles in peer- reviewed journals.3.

Reports of quality practice, with relevance for researchers and practitioners are uncommon.
