About INHSU

The International Network on Health and Hepatitis in Substance Users (INHSU) is a global network dedicated to improving the health of people who use drugs, with a specific focus on hepatitis C, infectious diseases and other harms that may relate to drug use.

Our vision is a world where people who use drugs have equitable access to evidence-based services, treatments, and support needed to improve health and live well.

We connect people to promote knowledge sharing, educate our community, and develop evidence-based policy responses to improve the health of people who use drugs, including responding to the structural inequalities that stand in the way of achieving this.
