The World Federation Against Drugs (WFAD) is a multilateral community of non-governmental organisations and individuals. The aim of WFAD is to work for a drug-free world. The members of WFAD share a common concern that illicit drug use is undercutting traditional values and threatening the existence of stable families, communities, and government institutions throughout the world.

The WFAD comprises organisations, institutions and individuals who accept and observe the conditions for membership.
