Global Cannabis Report 3rd Edition released covering 2022 policy developments
2022 was another massive year for the development of progressive policy on cannabis control globally.

Decriminalisation of adult-use cannabis is also progressing globally, which may be a precursor to commercial legalisation in some regions.
