Switzerland — Pilot Study for Recreational Weed in Switzerland

 by Ben Horner

In April, Switzerland approved a pilot project that will allow recreational weed sales as they are beginning to revise their policies on pot. The country will allow recreational weed for purchase at pharmacies in the city of Basel which is located in the northern region of the country near the French and German borders. The prosed projects were brought up for discussion last fall,

The project will begin this summer and will involve the local government of Basel, Basel Psychiatric Clinics, and Basel University, will begin with 400 hundred residents over 18 years old from the city. As a part of the project, they will be interviewed for two and half years to review how the marijuana is affecting their mental and physical health. 

Selling and growing marijuana is illegal in Switzerland. Medical marijuana and CBD are legal with products being sold at a 1 percent THC content; even Swiss chocolate infused with American CBD.
