“A Full-Spectrum Psychedelic Policy Paradigm: Establishing Continuity, Reconciling Tensions, and Seeking Harmonization”

The psychedelic policy reform landscape has entered a new era. In this talk, Ismail will delve into the current slate of law and policy proposals and the medical, historical, and  cultural dimensions and tensions that inform and influence different approaches. A case will be made for a holistic approach that balances scientific and community research and knowledge, political and demographic contexts, and practical and ontological ethics to cultivate a harmonious post-prohibition reality.
