SUPPORTING CZECH PSYCHEDELIC RESEARCH

Donations and ethics

Financial contributions received for supported projects are not used for the operation of the foundation - that is covered by the Patrons of PSYRES. 70% of the gifted funds are used for the benefit of the specific project chosen by you. The remaining 30% is transparently used by the foundation in accordance with its mission and statutes. This gives PSYRES the opportunity to meet the current needs of supported projects or to fund the organization of educational events.


You can support the following areas:


MEDICINE

Clinical research into the treatment of depression and existential distress in cancer patients.

ANTHROPOLOGY

Scientific research of the influence of traditional methods of ayahuasca’s ritual use on the neurobiology of the brain and the psyche of the participants.

LEGISLATION

Ensuring legal support in the field of legalization of treatment procedures associated with psychedelics, especially psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy.


PSYRES operates in line with these values:


TRANSPARENCY

We share all information openly. In doing so, we create a culture of accountability and contribute to a public commonality that facilitates ethical collaboration towards a shared higher purpose.

INTEGRITY

We communicate openly, clearly, sincerely, honestly, and respectfully outside and inside the organization. Our decisions are based on a careful assessment of the specific situation, they are supported by scientific arguments, cordiality, and common sense. We connect everything essential.

FAIRNESS AND OBJECTIVITY

We hold space for the implementation of scientific research, which can significantly contribute to the expansion of treatment options for mental illnesses. Supported projects are selected fairly, objectively, and only after careful consideration. We make sure to provide equal opportunities for everyone.

EFFICIENCY

The goal of our work is to make psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy available to patients who remain without help. We strive for legislative changes leading to the use of the full potential of these substances. Effective use of our resources leading to the fulfilment of our vision is key for us.

CURIOSITY, OPENNESS AND GROWTH

We are open to new topics, challenges, and opportunities, which may include going beyond the comfort zone. All-round growth and development is also our natural intention.


PSYRES adheres to the following principles:


SUPPORTING OPEN SCIENCE

We consider free access to scientific knowledge to be a fundamental building block of societal progress. We share what we learn and create—including our findings, protocols, and finances.

ACCESSIBILITY FOR ALL

We believe that the possibility of using psychedelics in the treatment of mental illnesses and self-knowledge should be available to everyone without distinction and without excluding anyone due to  financial reasons.

PUBLIC BENEFIT

We prioritize the well-being of humanity and the planet over organizational or individual profit. We honor the communities, the traditions of the ancestors, the modern present, and the historical struggles from which we have learned by practising solidarity and reciprocity and activities with a positive impact on future generations.

COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH

Our activities are aimed at the simultaneous support of a scientific therapeutic approach, the research of the traditional use of psychedelics, and the search for the most socially beneficial legislative solution to the question of how to maximize the potential benefits of psychedelics.
