Explore the most recent data on the drug situation in Europe provided by the EU Member States. These datasets underpin the analysis presented in the agency's work. Most data may be viewed interactively on screen and downloaded in Excel format.
We work closely with the 27 EU Member States plus Norway and Türkiye, candidates and potential candidates to the EU, the European Neighbourhood Policy countries and other third countries.
We have developed a systemic approach that brings together the human networks, processes and scientific tools necessary for collecting, analysing and reporting on the many aspects of the European drugs phenomenon.
