The workshop focuses on discussing the overview of addicts and users of illegal drugs; detection and management of addicts and users of narcotics, post-detoxification management; medical treatment of drug addicts; Vietnam's law on detoxication. 

In the training course, officers from the Kingdom of Cambodia will visit a detoxication facility in Tay Ninh province.

The training workshop is an opportunity for officers from the two countries to share their experiences and knowledge of management of addicts, illegal drug users, as well as detoxication and post-addiction management in the two countries.

At the end of the training workshop, the trainees will be awarded a certificate, and hopefully they will use their acquired knowledge from the course to achieve more achievements in their work, contributing to improving the efficiency of coordination in preventing and fighting illicit drug trafficking between Vietnam and Cambodia.
