Abstract:
Drug abuse remains a significant global public health challenge, particularly among youth (UNODC, 2023). This comprehensive review examines the critical role of life skills education (LSE) in preventing substance abuse. By analyzing empirical studies and intervention programs, the research investigates how targeted educational approaches equip individuals with essential cognitive, emotional, and social competencies to resist drug-related risks (Botvin& Griffin, 2021). The findings reveal that systematic LSE fosters resilience, improves decision-making, and enhances stress management and self-efficacy (WHO, 2022). Future directions focus on integrating technology, addressing cultural contexts, and creating cost-effective implementation strategies.
