Consumo de Marihuna

DEYCI ALEXANDRA NUÑEZ VILLALVA -

En Ecuador especialmente en la población adolescente la falta de información o el acceso a información distorsionada, genera en los chicos un mayor riego de consumo de marihuana, ya que ellos consideran que  no es danino este consumo, consideran ellos que el consumo de alcohol es de mayor riesgo por el numero de accidentes o de muertes, pero anulan el riesgo que a largo plazo pueda provocar el consumo de marihuana, ellos consideran incluso que el consumo de marihuana es medicinal, terapéutico, lo que lamentablemente ha incrementado el consumo de dicha sustancia en la sociedad ecuatoriana.

The Canadian Centre on Substance Use and Addiction (CCSA) provided funding to Dr. Akwasi Owusu-Bempah and Dr. Scot Wortley from the University of Toronto to research youth interactions with the criminal justice system, including the nature and outcomes of those interactions.
