The Faculty works primarily to disseminate and support the implementation of the “Unplugged” programme, but also supports other prevention programmes based on a Comprehensive Social Influence model.
An efficient network of Master Trainers whom are able to implement quality training and certify trainers is an important contribution to the efforts of the European Union to assure qualitative and evidence-based drug abuse prevention programmes in schools.
