Discussion Paper Cannabis & Sustainable Development.
Goal 1: End Poverty in All Forms Every where
Agriculture to reduce poverty.
Tilting the balance of illicit profits in favour of the poorest in the production chain.
A public policy reform which would target vulnerable populations already involved in illicit Cannabis -related activities, to prioritize their inclusion in a regulated market, is a way to explore to directly increase the quality of life of those populations, while providing them with a fair economic and employment opportunities, contributing to push the global poverty curve to a tipping point.
In complement, socially fair regulations focusing on reducing the high number of middlemen between growers and consumers (a characteristic element of illicit Cannabis markets) – or on reducing middlemen's profits compared to those of producers – would significantly increase resources for peasants, small-scale and family farmers, as well as for populations involved in the illicit retail markets.
