Basel, CH Weed Care Pilot Cannabis Legalization Switzerland

Basel and its research partners are recruiting 370 volunteers for the 30-month pilot. Eligible participants are Basel residents aged 18 and older who currently use illicit cannabis. Half of the pilot group can immediately purchase cannabis products from nine participating pharmacies. The remaining group waits for six months while continuing their regular consumption levels. This first-in-Switzerland program evaluates the economic and health benefits of legalization through participant surveys.
