Show Notes
We sat down with DPA's new executive director to find out more about her history and look ahead to next week's gathering at the 2017 International Drug Policy Reform Conference in Atlanta. Maria's commitment to social justice and drug policy reform dates from her childhood, which she spent mostly in Peru. She was strongly influenced by her early work at Human Rights Watch researching Colombia, where drug profits fueled massacres and official corruption.
