Please join us for an exciting and informative virtual event where we will officially launch the ITTC Network! All are welcome to learn more about the ITTC model of technology transfer, hear about the experiences of the existing ITTCs, and meet our leaders and key stakeholders. The virtual launch will feature Dean Fixsen, PhD, a renowned implementation science expert, as our keynote speaker. Special thanks to the The National Rehabilitation Centre (NRC) in Abu Dhabi, the future home of United Arab Emirates ITTC for hosting this event! NRC is already a leader in promoting the adoption and implementation of science-based prevention, treatment and recovery services in UAE and throughout other parts of the Middle East. ICUDDR and the existing ITTCs are honored to include NRC in the ITTC Network. About the ITTC Network: The International Technology Transfer Center (ITTC) Network develops and strengthens the workforce, organizations and systems that provide substance use prevention, treatment, and recovery support services. Based in universities and research centers, ITTCs utilize a variety of strategies to accelerate the implementation of scientifically-based and culturally appropriate practices. ITTCs currently exist in Vietnam, Ukraine, and South Africa, with more countries being added in the near future. The Centers are brought together in a coordinated Network through the leadership of the ITTC Network Coordinating Office in partnership with the International Consortium of Universities on Drug Demand Reduction (ICUDDR). Special note: The ITTC virtual launch event will be held in English with simultaneous translation into Spanish.
