Recovery from substance use and mental health challenges is not a one-size-fits-all journey. Around the world, people experience recovery through a range of culturally informed, community-driven, clinical, and peer-supported pathways. 

This session introduces participants to the concept of multiple pathways to recovery, emphasising the value of choice, inclusion, and respect for diverse traditions and practices. Attendees will examine how recovery is defined across different cultures, the role of social and systemic supports, and the importance of empowering individuals to find their own path toward wellness. Key aspects to be covered include:

  • Welcome & Introduction

  • Understanding Recovery Across Cultures

  • Exploring Multiple Recovery Pathways

  • Barriers and Social Determinants of Recovery

  • Role of Peer and Community Support 

  • Practice Integration Activity

  • Wrap-Up and Call to Action

 

Intended audience:

This webinar is intended for:

  • National Drug Councils and policymakers

  • Civil society organisations involved in recovery

  • Recovery champions and advocates

  • Professionals and practitioners in the field of recovery

  • People with lived experience in recovery

  1. Describe the principles of multiple pathways to recovery across diverse international contexts.

  2. Identify a wide range of recovery approaches, including traditional healing practices, mutual aid, faith- and spirituality-based recovery, harm reduction, medication-assisted recovery, and peer-led models.
