Approaches to Regulating Plant Medicine: Cannabis, Psychedelics, and Beyond

Many have observed how psychedelic legalization and policy development are happening in the wake of a multi-decade movement to legalize cannabis, and the industry that followed it. Panelists will start there by comparing the efforts, reflecting on lessons learned, and sharing how the psychedelic space takes those learnings to draft implementable policy, create mechanisms for social equity, and build bridges across movements. Building on this knowledge base, this discussion will also look ahead to what’s next for plant medicine policy including ecological, cultural, and global considerations.
