The persisting drug violence has further evolved into causing adverse consequences to the democratic stability, human and national security of Latin America while also becoming the reason for a variety of global concerns such as financial crises, refugee crises and other drug- related violence.

Finally it will provide recommendations towards resolving the conflict permanently and in a long-term approach.
