Hi Everybody,
For those who do not know us:
The International Center for Ethnobotanical Education, Research & Service (ICEERS) is a philanthropic, tax-exempt non-profit organization (charity) dedicated to 1) the integration of ayahuasca, iboga and other traditional plants as therapeutic tools in modern society, and 2) the preservation of the indigenous cultures that have been using these plant species since antiquity on, their habitat and botanical resources. ICEERS is dedicated to marshall the forces of the ethnobotanical knowledge of the indigenous peoples and modern therapeutic practice, responding to the urgent need for efficient tools for personal and social development.
Why do we believe in these ethnobotanicals?
A society has emerged in which worldwide 450 million people suffer from a diagnosable mental disorder, more than 200 million people have a drug dependence and according to the WHO depression will become one of the most important health problem in first world countries over the next 20 years. Beyond these statistics lay the quiet suffering of perhaps the majority of our society, who live under the radar of official, medical prognoses; those with unresolved trauma, damaged self esteem, unhealthy relationships, social anxiety and a vast spectrum of neuroses interfering with their personal growth process. It is clear that new strategies of intervention to detect and solve the recurrent psycho-social problems we face today are greatly needed.
The plant species ICEERS focuses on have been used for centuries or even millennia by indigenous and pre-industrial societies to address medical, psychological and social issues critical to social relations and survival. Their capacity to induce profound introspective psychological states, and physiological and behavioral adjustments make them promising tools for catalyzing therapeutic programs or personal growth processes.
Best Wishes to all of you!
