HEALTHY LIFESTYLE

As per the definition by the World Health Organization (WHO), health is not merely the absence of disease or infirmity; it covers overall physical, mental and social well-being.

Recognizing the different types of addiction is undeniably crucial for effective addiction prevention, but it's equally vital to instill healthy living habits that keep individuals away from addiction. Having knowledge about factors directly impacting mental and physical health, such as balanced nutrition, sufficient sleep and regular physical activity, acts as a protective barrier against addiction risks.

Identifying, eliminating or lessening any factors that pose threats to health (social, environmental, economic, cultural and behavioral) along with increasing and disseminating protective factors fall under the realm of prevention. From a preventive standpoint, it's much simpler, more effective and cost-efficient to prevent a problem with potentially harmful consequences before it arises than to mitigate the resulting damages.

The forum, which focused on the theme of "Electronic Cigarettes and Electronic Products" was also graced by the presence of representatives from different Green Crescent organizations. Among them, Muhammad Galaev, Head of the Youth Information Block at Dagestan Green Crescent, delivered a remarkable and insightful speech, drawing attention to his personal experiences. In his address, Mr. Galaev reflected on his participation in the 67th Session of the United Nations Commission on Narcotic Drugs (CND), which was organized by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC). He shared key moments from a particularly meaningful side event he attended, titled “The Role of Sports and Mental Health in Preventing Addiction.” His reflections underscored the importance of promoting mental well-being and encouraging active lifestyles as effective strategies in protecting individuals from substance abuse. Moreover, Mr. Galaev took the opportunity to express his heartfelt appreciation for the unwavering support provided by the International Federation of Green Crescent Societies during the CND. He emphasized how the Federation’s presence and contributions at such global platforms enhance the visibility of civil society’s role in advocating for healthier, addiction-free communities. The forum proved to be a significant platform for young advocates, allowing them to exchange experiences, raise awareness on pressing issues like electronic nicotine delivery systems, and discuss collaborative solutions aimed at preventing addiction in future generations.
