ICEERS
Also known as: ICEERS Foundation, International Center for Ethnobotanical Education, Research, and Service
Data updated
ICEERS 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.
Blossom’s read
ICEERS is best understood as a safety, education and policy organisation rather than a conventional psychedelic training school. Its courses sit alongside crisis support, drug-interaction guidance, legal defence and research, so the appeal is strongest for clinicians, facilitators and researchers who want a rights-based, harm-reduction frame around traditional Indigenous medicines. It has notable field credibility through long-running work in ayahuasca, integration and legal support, with faculty drawn from its own clinical and research team.
Who is ICEERS for?
Best for health professionals, plant-medicine facilitators, and people working in integration or risk reduction who want practical guidance on safer use, support and ethics. It also suits researchers and community-facing practitioners working in non-native ceremonial contexts.
What do you need before you start?
ICEERS publishes no universal licensure requirement for its Academy courses. The integration course is aimed at health care professionals, while AyaSafety is aimed at ceremonial plant facilitators; the provider also positions the training for mental health professionals, care providers and facilitators.
Is ICEERS accredited?
ICEERS does not publish formal accreditation, CME or CE credit information on its main public course pages. Its public framing emphasises professional training and practical competence rather than an accredited qualification.
How much does it cost?
ICEERS does not publish a single standard course price on its main Academy pages. It does state that course pricing is adjusted by country for accessibility, and its Community Circles membership includes a discount on Integration Training and AyaSafety.
What do you walk away with?
Learners are positioned to gain safer practice tools, harm-reduction knowledge, and practical frameworks for integration support and ceremonial risk reduction. The training does not present itself as a licence or medical qualification.
