Breakout Session: Applying an Equity Lens to Policy in the Psychedelic Sector

This session provides an introduction to policy analysis from an equity-oriented perspective, with specific application to the psychedelic sector. Participants will explore how policies can perpetuate or disrupt inequities within the psychedelic community, including issues related to access, effectiveness, and experiences within psychedelic initiatives. Using policy tools and frameworks presented in the session, participants will have an opportunity to apply an equity lens to issues in psychedelics, and identify how changes to policy can make psychedelic initiatives safer, fairer and more socially just.
