**Drug Policy Alliance**

The Drug Policy Alliance (DPA) is a prominent advocacy group that champions the reform of drug laws in the United States, with a particular emphasis on cannabis policy. Established in 2000 through the unification of The Lindesmith Center and the Drug Policy Foundation, the DPA has been instrumental in shaping progressive drug policies that prioritize public health and human rights. The organization’s efforts have significantly contributed to the shift in public perception and legislation regarding cannabis, advocating for its decriminalization and responsible regulation. Over time, the Drug Policy Alliance has expanded its focus to include issues such as racial equity, harm reduction, and the dismantling of punitive drug laws that disproportionately affect marginalized communities. By leveraging research and advocacy, the DPA continues to lead the charge in transforming drug policy to reflect modern values and scientific insights.

What is this "Wiki" & how does the cannabis community benefit?

The Green CulturED Wiki enables you to explore, learn, and share through a knowledge base tailored to the cannabis industry. It functions like an encyclopedia, lexicon, glossary, wiki, or dictionary. This tool is useful for industry learners and professionals to learn more about resources, programs, and terms specifically in the cannabis sector.

Yes, new terms can be added by crafting individual entries, each with its own dedicated page and unique URL. By sharing resources, information, and industry information, users are able to foster community, growth, and learning. Once submitted, a glossary term is reviewed by the Green CulturED team, which will then approve or deny the submission. 

While the Green CulturED Community Wiki does not impose specific content restrictions, it is essential to adhere to general web content guidelines, which include avoiding misinformation and respecting copyright laws. For cannabis-related glossaries, it’s critical to ensure the accuracy and legality of the information presented. In addition, common courtesy and “netiquette” are part of our community user agreement, and it is crucial to maintain those levels of respect when adding new terms, comments, etc.

Glossary term categories serve as a reference tool that enhances usability, navigability, and educational value by organizing terms into groups such as industry brands, consulting firms, and seed banks.

The Green CulturED Wiki supports comments on individual glossary terms, enabling users to engage in discussions or leave feedback. This feature fosters collaborative learning and knowledge sharing within the cannabis community.
If you encounter incorrect or outdated information, please contact the site administrators directly or use the commenting feature to report inaccuracies for review and correction. Green CulturED Wiki allows for revisions, enabling updates and corrections.
Green CulturED Wiki utilizes user rights and capabilities for managing and reviewing user-contributed terms. Administrators can set specific permissions and establish review processes according to their policies.
