About the product

This publication provides an overview of basic principles underlying the rapid situation assessment (RSA) methodology used to determine the nature, extent and trends in respect of certain health and social problems and of the structure and services that exist. It introduces the RSA methodology as a flexible and pragmatic approach for arriving at a comprehensive assessment and provides guidance on how findings can be used to develop appropriate interventions in countries experiencing drug abuse problems.
