We founded the non-profit Psychedelia-Foundation out of the conviction that the responsible and respectful use of psychedelic substances – and a deeper understanding of their effects on consciousness and perception – can be powerful tools for personal growth and societal progress.
The ongoing educational efforts of the psychedelic movement have over the years sparked a psychedelic renaissance, accompanied by a scientific resurgence: earlier findings are being confirmed, traditional knowledge is being deepened, and new insights into human coexistence are emerging. The spectrum ranges from the treatment of therapy-resistant conditions to the initiation and support of creative processes and personal development, all the way to profoundly meaningful existential experiences.
However, to unlock this potential, facts alone are not enough. What’s crucial is a culture that makes both opportunities and risks equally visible and gives psychedelic experiences a thoughtful place in public consciousness.
What We Do:
- Making Knowledge Accessible
We curate scientific, cultural-historical, and practical insights in a clear and comprehensible way – providing a foundation for a factual, unbiased public discourse.
- Connecting People
Through expert exchange, workshops, symposiums, and digital forums, we bring together physicians, therapists, clinical researchers, other scientists, philosophers, artists, and the interested public. This creates bridges for fruitful interdisciplinary collaboration.
- -Enable Qualification
Together with universities, professional associations, and other institutions, we are developing training standards that enable the safe and ethically grounded guidance of psychedelic experiences – from therapy and medicine to research, science, and self-exploration settings.
- Promote Cultural Reintegration
Through events, publications, research projects, and artistic formats, we work to responsibly reintegrate psychedelic practices into society in all their forms – without glorification, without demonization.
Your Role
Whether as a co-researcher, educator, discussion partner, or simply someone interested in the topic – we invite you to help us build these structures. Together, we are creating a framework that unites safety, dignity, and scientific excellence, offering psychedelic experiences a rightful place in our culture.
Every donation also helps us further develop our non-profit projects and set new impulses.
