What We Do
Advocating for the 4+ million people who use/d drugs
AIVL, the Australian Injecting and Illicit Drug Users League, is the national peer-led peak organisation representing our network of peer-based harm reduction programs and Drug User Organisations.
We advance the wellbeing of people who use and have used drugs through partnerships in Australia, the Pacific Region and internationally.
We platform the voices of people who use and have used 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 and have used drugs.
