ICEERS
Non-ProfitICEERS is a Spain-based nonprofit focused on the globalization of Indigenous plant medicines, with work spanning education, research, legal support, and community services. Its website describes three connected areas of work: mitigating harms and consequences, co-creating collaborative pathways, and international monitoring and research. The organization serves people navigating psychoactive plant use, health professionals, and Indigenous and community partners across multiple countries. In psychedelic and drug policy work, ICEERS combines harm reduction, public education, and policy advocacy rather than operating as a patient-access organization. Its current public-facing services include free integration and crisis support through El Faro, a drug-interaction information service, educational resources, and legal defense support for people facing prosecution related to traditional medicines. ICEERS also reports work with Indigenous partners and claims its efforts have informed court rulings and public policy, making it relevant to researchers, clinicians, funders, policy groups, and community stakeholders seeking evidence, safety, and rights-based collaboration.
