Abstract :

  Fatemeh Binazadeh[1] Leila Raeisi[2] Masoud Raei[3]   Abstract: Counter-narcotics requires the movement of all segments of society, with NGOs nowadays seeking to gain a foothold in the field. Investigating the response of these organizations to the legal and judicial policies of drugs requires a descriptive-analytical, comparative study of the policies of the countries involved, including origin and destination of materials and then needs to analyze the status of NGOs.  This role varies according to its legal basis (Article 14 of the 1961 Convention) and depending on the prevailing political, social conditions, and the policies of the countries involved in the substance of the matter, thus facilitating the adoption of the policies of the originating countries. Adopting the easy policies by the countries of origin, however, the presence of these institutions will increase and the implementation of strict policies by the destination countries will reduce the possibility of their presence; however, more presence does not necessarily mean more impact on drug policies in the country; and their influence depends on the degree of democracy in the country.
