Ballymun Community Case Study: Experiences and Perceptions of Problem Drug Use

Research brief:
In carrying out research on the Community Study, the contractor was expected to establish a study based on at least three communities who have experienced significant drug problems, one of these being Ballymun. The Ballymun Community Case Study aimed to examine people’s experience of problem drug use in the area and the ways in which they responded to this problem.

Tender awarded to:
Dr Hilda Loughran and Dr Mary Ellen Mc Cann at the Department of Social Studies, UCD.

Published: November 2006
