Abstract

In designing drug abuse prevention programs it is possible to start from a variety of strategies and approaches. This article gives a detailed review of various criteria in choosing appropriate strategic approaches. With regard to the degree of risk, the universal, selective and indicated prevention are considered. With regard to the application context, it is possible to consider the family, peer and school context, as well as the context of local communities and the wider social environment. When starting from the target population, it is possible to distinguish between the prevention in the pre-school period, prevention in primary and secondary schools and prevention among students.
