NUAA would like to show respect and acknowledge the Gadigal people of the Eora nation as the traditional owners of the land on which User’s News is published. We respectfully acknowledge all Aboriginal nations within NSW where this magazine is distributed.
NUAA is a peer based, community-controlled drug user organisation. We represent the voices and needs of drug-using communities in NSW. NUAA and the community of people who inject drugs were instrumental in averting the HIV epidemic and we remain central to improving the health and human rights of all People Who Use Drugs in NSW. We would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the legacy of the peers who went before us and reaffirm our commitment to fighting the effects of stigma and criminalisation in all their manifestations.

Australia’s medicinal cannabis industry has been in the news after the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) decided they needed to remind prescribers and dispensers of their responsibility to abide by AHPRA’s official Professional Guidelines. Many of the issues identified by AHPRA come from blurring the boundary between medicinal and non-medicinal use. Legalising non-medicinal use would remove the incentive for medicinal providers to serve the non-medicinal market.
