Hi,
We've been addressed by the Israeli anti-drug authority regarding the same
problem a few months ago.
They wanted to use a more creative method in fighting drugs addictions.
Our people visited the anti-drug center in HK, and met with people from NIDA
.
The result of this market research was the production of a new SMART program
about addictions that will use edutainment to rich the kids & teens.
This special program will be presented in the Israeli national science
museum in the next academic year.
The production is being paid by the Israeli anti drugs authority and started
a month ago (the scripts are being written as we speak).
We will be happy to cooperate with you or other centers regarding this most
important subject.
