Abstract

Abstract: The study on the impact of marijuana intolerance policies in Ecuador during the Daniel Noboa administration analyzes how these measures affect the health and well-being of the population, in line with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) number three: Good Health and Well-being. The repeal of the "Drug Consumption Table" has led to an increase in arrests and incarcerations for possession of small amounts of marijuana, disproportionately affecting young people and marginalized communities. Compared with countries that adopted more liberal approaches, such as Portugal and Uruguay, it is observed that intolerance policies do not improve public health. The study's limitations include the lack of up-to-date and accurate data, which underscores the need to improve data collection and transparency. It is recommended that Ecuador adopt more balanced and evidence-based policies, focusing on decriminalization and harm reduction programs. A comprehensive, multisectoral approach is essential to addressing the drug problem and promoting well-being and social inclusion.
