The implementation of preventive addiction strategies becomes inevitable in managing the growing issues concerning substance use disorders and addiction. Preventive addiction programs seek to prevent addiction itself from ever occurring by eliminating or at least reducing known risk factors, building protective factors, and increasing resilience at an individual, familial, and community level. Early intervention, in conjunction with a supportive environment, decreases the emergence of addiction and enhances the overall quality of well-being.
Addiction World Conference is helping to bring the world together in collaboration and sharing of innovative research, ensuring that the preventive measures evolve with new evidence. Through scientific innovation, community action, and policy reform, we can build a future where addiction is not inevitable but rather a challenge that can be mitigated and prevented.
