International Overdose Awareness Day (IOAD)
International Overdose Awareness Day is a global event held on August 31st each year and aims to raise awareness of overdose and reduce the stigma of a legal and illegal drug-related death. It also acknowledges the grief felt by families and friends remembering those who have met with death or permanent injury as a result of drug overdose.
Goals:
To provide an opportunity for people to publicly mourn for love ones, without feeling of guilt or shame.
To give Community members information about the issue of fatal and non-fatal overdose.
To send a strong message to current and former drug users that they are valued and their addiction can be reintegrated
To stimulate discussion about overdose prevention and drug policy.
To remind all the risk of overdose
To commemorate IOAD, in continuation of our previous SAVE TOMORROW events, this year we will have rugby match. This event is aimed at spreading awareness of overdose losses together with encouraging the youth to get involved in sports and physical activities.
SAVE TOMORROW 3 is planned to take place at the Pakistan Sports Board (Jinnah Stadium – Sports Complex Islamabad) on Friday, 14th of September 2018 from 1500 hrs to 2000 hrs.
