Uso de drogas, redução de danos e o serviço social: uma reflexão sobre a importância da perspectiva da redução de danos nos debates sobre as drogas. Orientador: Monica Maria Calixto de Farias Alves. 2023. 35f. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Graduação em Serviço Social) - Centro de Ciências Sociais Aplicadas, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2023.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/57022The purpose of this article is to address the significance of the Harm Reduction perspective in discussions on drugs, particularly those promoted within the field of Social Work. Structured in three moments, the study aims to reflect on the trajectory of the national drug policy and Harm Reduction within a critical-dialectical framework. Thus, the first section is dedicated to the issue of drugs, pointing out crucial elements for comprehending the problem. The second section turns to the specificity of public policies and the perspective of harm reduction, while the last section disseminates information regarding the production of knowledge in the field of Social Work on the theme over the past years (2015-2022). The analysis conducted has enabled a more pronounced understanding of the relevance of Harm Reduction. It has also identified that, within the domain of Social Work, this perspective has been referenced in drug-related studies, albeit in a more 'guiding' capacity, given that the specific discussion on the importance of Harm Reduction is still conducted rather timidly. This was a study of a quantitative-qualitative approach, involving bibliographic analysis, aimed at highlighting the importance of Harm Reduction in addressing the issue of drugs.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Serviço Socialredução de danosdrogaspolítica de drogasSocial Workharm reductiondrugsdrug policyUso de drogas, redução de danos e o serviço social: uma reflexão sobre a importância da perspectiva da redução de danos nos debates sobre as drogasbachelorThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS SOCIAIS APLICADAS::SERVICO SOCIAL
