From the Paper:
"In 1993, the idea of ADIC appeared in the Ukraine because of the WHO (World Health Organization) conference held in Kiev. At this conference it was stated that, " Alcohol and other drugs problems were rapidly changing the Socio-Economic environments in the Ukraine." The idea of ADIC (Alcohol and drug Information Center) became a reality in the Ukraine after Konstantin Krasovsky worked in the ADIC Unit of the WHO Regional Office in Europe in 1994. The ADIC Unit of Ukraine was founded in 1995, this is a non-governmental, non-profit, and professional organization has an independent status in relation to other organizations in the Ukraine. The primary interest of the ADIC Unit in the Ukraine was alcohol and other illegal drugs, but soon tobacco became one of its top priorities."
