The Australian Institute of Criminology (AIC) has today released a paper revealing the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the supply and demand of cannabis in Australia. Jointly written by AIC researchers Laura Doherty, Tom Sullivan and Alexandra Voce, the report outlines who is most likely to use cannabis during the pandemic and what effect the pandemic had on cannabis supply.

AIC Deputy Director Dr Rick Brown said the findings reveal first hand insights into why people use cannabis and why some individuals have increased their use since the pandemic began.
