What We Do
Advocating for the 4 million people who use drugs illicitly in Australia
AIVL, the Australian Injecting and Illicit Drug Users League, is the national peer-led peak organisation representing our network of peer-based harm reduction and Drug User Organisations.
We advance the wellbeing of people who use drugs through partnerships in Australia, the Pacific Region and internationally.
We platform the voices of people who use drugs nationally to inform policy, research, programs and practice.
We develop the national peer workforce through evidence and the lived-living experience and expertise of people who use drugs.
