Community-led organization funding ethical psychedelic research to advance mental health solutions, involving indigenous knowledge and stakeholder participation, supported by recent GR15 funds.

PsyDAO is a community-driven organization funding ethical psychedelic research. Our mission is to develop psychedelic therapeutics and intellectual property while involving all key stakeholders, including indigenous communities with preserved knowledge on psychedelics. Our recent GR15 funding has enabled us to support leading researchers and build a strong community committed to sustainable solutions for the mental health crisis.

By contributing to PsyDAO, you'll play an active role in promoting ethical research and supporting a sustainable approach to solving the mental health crisis. In return, you'll receive a POAP and a voice in the PsyDAO community.

GR15 is the most recent funding round that allowed us to provide financial support to top researchers in the psychedelic field. POAP is Proof of Attendance Protocol, which is a digital token that serves as a unique, verifiable record of your participation in the PsyDAO community.

We believe that our commitment to ethical and sustainable psychedelic research, and our involvement with all key stakeholders, is crucial for making a positive impact on the mental health crisis. In fact, according to the World Health Organization, depression is the leading cause of disability worldwide. With your support, we can help pave the way towards a more hopeful and healthier future.
