The DUHEI survey is the largest survey to date on student drug use in Ireland, with over 11,500 responses from students across 21 Higher Education Institutions.

The findings of the DUHEI report have informed the development of ESHEILD and continues to influence harm-reduction across the sector.

The Framework RUISHE was based on a Report of the Rapid Response Group convened by the Department of Higher Education (now DFERIS) in 2019. The Framework outlines a set of recommendations for Higher Education Institutions.

Supporting HEIs to implement the actions of the Framework RUISHE is one of the central aims of ESHEILD.
