We conclude that the GDPI project demonstrates that robust comparative evaluation of drug policy at a global scale is possible. However, we also reveal that this project will necessarily be subject to continuous refinement - especially when it comes to standardising expert country evaluations. We outline practical challenges and suggestions for future work in this direction
