Benefit Honoring: The Evolution of Indigenous Reciprocity in Psychedelics
We proudly hosted an extraordinary event this past Saturday, May 20, 2023, centered around the crucial topic of Indigenous Reciprocity in Psychedelics. With the participation of esteemed speakers Ariel Clark, Lucas Gerler, Troy Sia, and moderator Christian Gray, attendees were treated to an enlightening conversation that delved into the evolving relationship between psychedelics and indigenous tribes. The event not only shed light on the historical contributions of indigenous communities but also presented new business models that can foster mutually beneficial partnerships in the psychedelic industry.
Understanding Indigenous Reciprocity:
Across cultures and throughout history, psychedelics have played a significant role in indigenous communities, serving as conduits for spiritual practices and cultural heritage. Unfortunately, the indigenous knowledge surrounding these substances has often been marginalized or exploited by mainstream societies.
Our Marquee Event aimed to address this imbalance by emphasizing the concept of Indigenous Reciprocity. It highlighted the importance of honoring and respecting indigenous communities' contributions, promoting cultural preservation, and ensuring equitable compensation for their invaluable wisdom.
The event presented innovative business models that can pave the way for transformative partnerships between the psychedelic industry and indigenous tribes. These models focus on principles such as profit-sharing agreements, community-led initiatives, and strategic collaborations that prioritize the well-being and empowerment of indigenous communities. By adopting these new approaches, psychedelics companies can contribute to breaking the cycle of historical exploitation and build a more inclusive and sustainable industry.
By embracing new business models that prioritize indigenous partnerships, cultural preservation, and equitable compensation, the industry can forge a path that promotes justice, equality, and mutual growth. District216.com takes great pride in hosting events that facilitate thought-provoking conversations and drive positive change.
We remain dedicated to furthering these discussions and supporting the evolution of Indigenous Reciprocity in Psychedelics.
