Despite having been analysed from different theoretical frameworks, it doesn't seem that it has been applied a gender perspective in the design, implementation and analysis of European drug policies. However, the construction of the image of women in relation to drugs is influenced by gender roles, so that there is a collective imaginary flowing and taking shape, especially in public policy. Women often are more affected by the social penalty (stigma). Due to this stigma and fear of social sanction, many women do not acknowledge their consumption, fact that leads to their invisibility in the statistics and studies. In turn, this invisibility leads to increased vulnerability, closing a vicious circle whose consequences were analysed in the Workshop Invisible Differences: Gender, Drugs and Public Policy. The gender perspective in European drug policies, held in Oñati in May 2011.
A pesar de haber sido analizadas desde diferentes marcos teóricos, no parece haberse aplicado el enfoque de género en el diseño, aplicación y análisis de las políticas europeas de drogas. Sin embargo, la construcción de la imagen de las mujeres en relación con las drogas está condicionada por los roles de género, de manera que se produce un imaginario colectivo que circula y toma forma, especialmente en las políticas públicas. Las mujeres a menudo se ven afectadas en mayor medida por la penalización social (estigmatización). Esta estigmatización y miedo a la sanción social hace que muchas mujeres no admitan sus consumos, lo que conlleva su invisibilidad en las estadísticas y estudios. A su vez, esta invisibilidad conlleva un aumento de la vulnerabilidad, cerrando un círculo vicioso cuyas consecuencias fueron analizadas en el Workshop Diferencias Invisibles: Género, Drogas y Políticas Públicas. El enfoque de género en las políticas europeas de drogas, celebrado en Oñati en mayo de 2011.
