Be Drug Free Uganda: It’s a Campaign Project for students in and out of school. It raises awareness among students of the real risks of drug abuse, and the serious ramifications on a person’s physical health, mental health, and overall well-being. In addition, the campaign educates about the serious risks of drug use for transmitting HIV, and it encourages young people to share this information with their peers to prevent the spread of this disease.
The campaign centers on students, where they participate in sport, arts and technology to educate fellow students about the dangers of drug use and addiction.
