Abstract

Due to the seriousness of drug abuse, especially among young people, the researchers emphasize the importance of educational institutions in curbing this phenomenon. Schools serve as a bridge between youth, their families, and society, playing a crucial role in educating young people about the dangers of drug use and addiction, and guiding them toward healthy alternative activities. This research highlights the Icelandic experience as a successful model from the 1990s, where innovative programs and awareness efforts were implemented in collaboration with local entities to reduce drug abuse.
