UAPA was vital in forming a group of advocates (82 participants) not necessarily members of UAPA but with like minds. This has helped the voice to go further, aided UAPA to follow up on implementation of the sachet ban in the different places. With these members, UAPA drafted a petition for MoTIC to include a civil society representative on the monitoring task committee of the alcohol sachet ban. Another outcome of this initiative was the awareness of the International Day against illicit drug use and trafficking. In the face of delayed funding, our members offered various opportunities to celebrate this day.
