Consumer agency in cannabis supply – Exploring auto-regulatory documents of the cannabis social clubs in Spain

There is growing experience with the not-for-profit, consumer-driven cannabis social club (CSC) model that builds on self-supply, self-organization and harm-reduction; these are principles upon which people who use drugs (PWUD) have been engaging for decades. Recent legalization of cannabis in a number of jurisdictions and the related challenges in regulating production, sale, taxation and health-related matters have raised interest in non-commercial models of cannabis supply. The “codes of conduct” (CsoC) of CSC federations in Spain might reveal whether a consumer-based model could overcome these challenges.
