Addictions
The issue of addictions, whether substance or behavioral, has become a challenge in contemporary society. From alcohol and drugs to pathological gambling and addiction to technology or pornography, these addictive behaviors can affect people of all ages and social strata. It is imperative that as a society we recognize the risk factors that trigger these addictions and understand the devastating consequences they bring, both individually and collectively. Lack of awareness and Education about this topic contributes to its uncontrolled spread.
The general objectives of the course include:
-
Reflect on the different types of addictions, their underlying causes and associated risk factors. This would include an understanding of how addictions can affect people of all ages and socioeconomic backgrounds.
-
To train participants to recognize the warning signs of addictions in themselves and others, as well as provide guidelines on how to intervene appropriately and offer support.
-
To explore how the community as a whole can play an active role in the prevention and treatment of addictions by promoting healthy public policies, creating support networks and eliminating the stigma associated with addictions.
