About this episode
In this lesson, Elizabet Cortez from Español Sin Límite, and I discuss Harm Reduction in Spanish.
According to the National Institutes of Health, harm reduction is defined as interventions aimed to help people avoid the negative effects of drug use, namely infections and overdose. It also allows us to meet people where they are with kindness and respect.
We discuss a recent Radio Ambulante episode, Sala de Consumo, which tells the story of two organizations in Mexico that use a harm reduction strategy by providing safe tools and a supervised setting for using drugs.
After the discussion, we practice some of the key vocabulary.
