The present essay proposes an analysis of the performance of the Brazilian Drug Policy Platform as an institutional actor that influences the guidelines for the construction of drug policy in the public policy scenario in Brazil. PBPD is an articulation that works in a network form together with 57 organizations. The main agendas and guidelines for debate are articulated on themes and violence and incarceration; Medical cannabis; Attention and Care and Social Participation. The question that is the guiding thread of this research focuses on how the Platform, together with these organizations, acts to formulate a public agenda in the realization of advocacy, aiming at more democratic policies and a revision in the narrative of the drug policy aimed at the rights of users. Therefore, it was necessary to understand the recent debate on the formulation of public policies aimed at the construction of drug policies as well as the legislative framework in the country; an analysis of the Latin American context of drug policy and its international guidelines that influenced this process of the formation of PBPD, mainly advancing in the medical and legal discourses that are major pillars that influence drug policy; and finally, to analyze the theory of networks from the logic of collective action. Part of the methodology of this work is the bibliographic review on the topic of drug policies and public policy, interviews with members who worked and work at the Brazilian Drug Policy Platform, analysis of official documents of the Platform and quantitative data through netnography. It is concluded that the PBPD is part of the formulation of a public agenda focused on the drug policy, its performance has characteristics of social movements, but it can be analyzed as a new way of mobilizing collectives in a network aiming, through associations, to strengthen the agenda in question.
