Further ENhancing the Implementation of Quality Standards in Europe (FENIQS-EU): a country-by- country overview

The FENIQS-EU project (funded by the DG Justice Program of the European Commission– Drug Policy Initiatives) focuses on strengthening the implementation of Quality standards (QS) in drug prevention, treatment and harm reduction across the EU, with more services, organizations and countries applying QS in daily practice. The aim of this presentation is to provide an overview of QS application in the EU and implementation needs and challenges - with a focus on drug prevention. One of the work packages focuses on the current application of QS in all EU countries, by checking adherence with the Minimum QS (adopted by the EU Council, 2015), identifying barriers, needs and challenges regarding QS implementation and collecting good practice examples of QS implementation. To accomplish these tasks, key informants were identified in each EU country who were invited to participate in an online survey to provide information on the implementation of QS in a specific country/drug demand reduction area. In the final stage of the process, some key informants will be invited to participate in an online interview to provide more detailed information on the implementation of QS in their country, with a particular focus on good practice examples. This up-to-date assessment will contribute to a comprehensive, country-by-country overview of QS implementation level and will be a building block for describing case studies of good practice examples of QS implementation and for producing a field-tested implementation toolkit.
