The World Federation Against Drugs (WFAD), together with the Young Professionals Advisory Board (YPAB), a youth-led initiative of the Drug Free America Foundation, is pleased to invite you to the third webinar in the six-month Youth-Led Webinar Series.

The 30-minute webinar will take place on 28 August 2026 at 14:00 CEST and will explore vaping and emerging trends, including the risks associated with vaping and what can be done to strengthen prevention efforts. The session will provide an opportunity for a youth-led conversation on current developments, their implications for young people and how different actors can contribute to prevention.

The webinar will feature Dr.Michelle Peace, internationally recognised forensic toxicologist and Full Professor at Virginia Commonwealth University. Her research focuses on vaping, substance use, drug testing, cannabis, impaired driving and blood alcohol concentration. She is a Past President of the Society of Forensic Toxicologists and a Fellow of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences, and her work has contributed to discussions on substance use policy, treatment, highway safety and consumer protection.

The Youth-Led Webinar Series brings together young leaders, professionals, advocates and experts from around the world to explore issues affecting young people and strengthen youth engagement in substance use prevention. The topics discussed throughout the series have been identified by young people, and each session is led and moderated by youth representatives.

We warmly invite young people, practitioners, policymakers, researchers, civil society organisations and anyone interested in substance use prevention to join us for this discussion.
