ABSTRACT
Formerly known as a dreadful calamity for industrialized countries, drug abuse now seems to have spread all over the world. In Senegal, it has been very difficult to gather reliable statistics on its extensiveness. To better define the problem in Senegal, UNESCO has launched an epidemiological study on young people drug abuse and alcoholism in schools and elsewhere. The authors analyse the results of this study and draw the following conclusions:
all types of drug use are linked to religious practice, drug use by young people is due to curiosity or their ignorance of drug drawbacks and their lack of education, school, family, religious education and social repression play an important role in the fight against drug use.
