Mark Haden on the Future of Psychedelics and Public Health

A public health approach to the regulation and control of all currently illegal drugs is the question that we're asking.

Imagine a world where psychedelics are used safely and legally to treat trauma. In this episode of 'Change Truth', Carl Christensen sits down with Mark Haden, the chair of MAPS Canada, to explore this very possibility. With decades of experience educating the public about drugs, Mark offers a fresh perspective on how we can navigate the complex landscape of substance use and regulation.

The conversation covers a range of topics, from the therapeutic potential of MDMA to the importance of proper education and training for safe drug use. Mark believes that instead of fear-based messaging, we should focus on informed, responsible usage. He also discusses how we can regulate psychedelics without falling into the pitfalls of commercialization, as seen with alcohol and cigarettes. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the future of psychedelics in therapy and public health.
