The First National Conference “One Gram of Life” brought together parents, teachers, psychologists, psychotherapists, university lecturers, organizations and experts in prevention and countering drug distribution. The shared goal was clear — to look for solutions in time, before use becomes addiction.

Prevention before the first choice

The conference raised the need for a unified information and education strategy for prevention. Children should receive knowledge and support early enough to recognize risk and make an informed choice when they encounter it.

The subject must not be taboo

One of the main messages was the need to speak openly about drugs and the consequences of use — in the family, at school and in society. Prevention begins with information, conversation and presence, not only after a problem already exists.

The first conference marked the beginning of the consistent work of “One Gram of Life” — for more knowledge, earlier prevention and joint action in support of children and families.
