At ISSUP Malaysia, we believe that addressing drug-related concerns in our local communities requires more than just knowledge and resources—it demands strong collaboration and partnership.

We are committed to working hand-in-hand with local stakeholders across sectors to ensure that our efforts in prevention, treatment, and recovery are not only beneficial, but also impactful and sustainable.

Сприйняття профілактики як інвестиції для здоров'я та благополуччя

Вступаючи у 2025 рік, давайте ще раз підтвердимо нашу відданість профілактиці як наріжному каменю здоров'я та благополуччя. Профілактика – це не просто економічно ефективний підхід; Це мудра інвестиція в наше майбутнє. Вартість лікування часто значно перевищує ресурси, необхідні для профілактики, проте переваги профілактики поширюються на громади, сприяючи здоровішому та продуктивнішому життю.

At the heart of impactful progress lies the power of collaboration. We are thrilled to announce the deepening of our partnership with MAHSA University as we jointly advance research and postgraduate programs in addiction science.

The ISSUP Malaysia Youth team send a very warm welcome to all of our viewers and discuss why we need to invest in substance use prevention.
