The use of crystal methamphetamine and gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) to enhance sex (chemsex) has been widely researched over the past ten years. Chemsex research documents a spate of associated pleasures, motivations and harms and frequently calls for tailored interventions. In this seminar, Dr Jack Freestone will present his research on implementing peer and community-led chemsex interventions.

A light lunch will be provided for in-person registrants from 12:30pm. Registrations essential.
