The destructive effects of the trade in opium and its derivative, heroin, are felt globally: from opium farmers struggling to feed their families, to governments' efforts to control organized crime syndicates, to the ruined lives of addicts and their families throughout the world. Focusing on the world's largest opium-producing region, the Golden Triangle of northeast Myanmar, our work benefits not only the communities we work with, but also people and societies around the world.

If you want to know, here’s a bit about us.

The people of the Golden Triangle, primarily ethnic minorities, are trapped in a vicious cycle of dependence on opium cultivation to meet basic life needs. Decades of isolation and political instability in the region have made it impossible for these people to develop other means of subsistence. The proximity of the drug trade has a destructive impact on the health of individuals and societies; in the Golden Triangle drug abuse and HIV infection rates are among the highest in the world.

At the same time, misunderstanding propagated by sensational and sometimes misinformed media reports have hindered the region's leaders in their attempts to break free of this cycle. Although the challenges are great, they realize that positive economic alternatives are necessary not just to eradicate opium but, more importantly, to create a brighter future for their people.

The IFPEOC was founded in 1997 to help people in the Golden Triangle break out of their cultural isolation and discover different social and economic models, enabling them to reduce their dependency on the drug trade.
