Back to Stakeholders

ICEERS is a Spain-based nonprofit focused on the globalization of Indigenous plant medicines, with work spanning education, research, legal support, and community services. Its website describes three connected areas of work: mitigating harms and consequences, co-creating collaborative pathways, and international monitoring and research. The organization serves people navigating psychoactive plant use, health professionals, and Indigenous and community partners across multiple countries.

In psychedelic and drug policy work, ICEERS combines harm reduction, public education, and policy advocacy rather than operating as a patient-access organization. Its current public-facing services include free integration and crisis support through El Faro, a drug-interaction information service, educational resources, and legal defense support for people facing prosecution related to traditional medicines. ICEERS also reports work with Indigenous partners and claims its efforts have informed court rulings and public policy, making it relevant to researchers, clinicians, funders, policy groups, and community stakeholders seeking evidence, safety, and rights-based collaboration.

Blossom’s read

ICEERS looks like a serious, mission-led organisation rather than a glossy training brand. Its courses sit in the harm-reduction and integration end of the psychedelic field, with a clear emphasis on safety, ethics, and culturally aware practice rather than on selling a credential. It appears best for health professionals and experienced facilitators who want grounded, practice-facing education, particularly where ayahuasca and other traditional plant medicines are being used outside their original cultural settings. The lineage is institutional rather than guru-led, with faculty including Marc B. Aixalà, José Carlos Bouso, Jerónimo Mazarrasa, Mijal Schmidt, and David Londoño.

Who ICEERS is for

Best suited to health care professionals, care providers, and plant-medicine facilitators who want to improve safety, integration, and ethical practice. It is less clearly aimed at complete beginners or the general public.

Prerequisites

ICEERS describes the integration course as for health care professionals wanting to support people processing altered states of consciousness, and its Academy page frames courses for facilitators and mental health professionals. Specific formal entry requirements were not visible in the sources reviewed.

Accreditation & recognition

The site states that successful completion of the integration training gives a certificate of completion from ICEERS for the 45-hour course. I did not find evidence in the reviewed sources of external accreditation, licensure recognition, or CME/CE credit.

Cost

I did not find tuition or fee information on the pages reviewed. ICEERS describes the courses as online and structured over months, and the AyaSafety page notes a six-month programme with 45 hours of content and applications closing on a stated date, but no price was visible in the sources reviewed.

What you walk away with

Learners appear to receive an ICEERS certificate of completion for the integration course, plus practical tools for safer psychedelic integration or facilitator practice. ICEERS frames the outcomes as greater safety, confidence, ethical judgement, and a community of practice.
