    The National Institute of Health states that 39.5 million people in the world are affected by drug abuse. According to the National Institute of Health, a total of 18,013 overdose deaths in Russia, while nearly 108,000 people have overdosed in the United States as of 2024, according to The National Institute of Drug Abuse. This is prevalent due to poor policies, the presence of street drugs, and the stigmas surrounding this problem. This research will entail the different effects drug abuse has on both users and the community. The research will also compare the risks of engaging in drug abuse in Chicago, United States, and Marino, Russia, which are the epicenters of drug abuse, especially in adolescents. Therefore, this paper aims to bring awareness on the issue of drug abuse and its effects in Russia and the United States due to lack of awareness and lack of education. The presentation will also advocate for vulnerable populations who are struggling with addiction to make sure they are aware of the harsh realities of using drugs

    The Violation of women\u27s rights remains a significant issue worldwide, with women facing challenges with access to opportunities, inequality to their male counterparts, negative social norms, and lack of legal protections. According to the World Bank 2.4 billion women do not have the same economic rights as men, women still have only three-quarters of the legal rights afforded to men and one in three women globally has experienced physical and/or sexual intimate partner violence. In countries such as Afghanistan, India, and the United States, women face severe restrictions under Taliban rule, gender discrimination, wage gap, gender discrimination, violence, and efficient access to reproductive healthcare. Although these countries have different cultural ideologies and development status, the issues surrounding the violation of women’s rights are a similar problem globally. Therefore this paper will examine the legal rights of women in these countries, by highlighting the evolution of women\u27s rights in these countries and exploring the challenges they face. This study will further compare how each of these countries addresses these issues and recommend efforts to improve conditions. Finally, this paper will advocate for policy changes and actions that can help support women’s rights globally
