Across the world, drugs and sedatives used to facilitate sexual assaults represent a silent and dangerous threat to public health and safety. Often undetected and underreported, these substances compromise physical and mental health, undermine consent, and place survivors at severe risk.

The World Health Organization addresses this issue through the lens of public health, prevention, and victim protection. This committee will examine existing gaps in detection, awareness, healthcare response, and international cooperation, while exploring strategies to strengthen prevention, medical support, and safety mechanisms.
