The Social Promotion and Development Association (Asociación Promoción y Desarrollo Social, PDS) has announced the thirteenth edition of the contest  “Addictions: Your Point of View” (Adicciones: tu punto de mira), supported by the Spanish Network of Health Promoting Universities (Red Española de Universidades Promotoras de Salud, REUPS) and funded by the Government Delegation for the National Plan on Drugs.

For yet another year, the “Tu Punto” program has launched three contests: video, Instagram, and TikTok, all related to addictions.
