ESP Projects

Practical work, living network.

ESP is building the infrastructure for a long-term global stewardship movement: relationship-building, public education, network mapping, and research tools that help people find and protect the living cultures around sacred medicines.

EntheoTiki — The Living Entheogen Encyclopedia

EntheoTiki is ESP's open-access encyclopedia of entheogenic plants and fungi: botany, chemistry, cultural history, Indigenous uses, conservation status, and legal landscape. It is designed to be accurate, respectful, and sourced from ethnobotanical literature, peer-reviewed science, and properly credited Indigenous knowledge.

Species scope

Ayahuasca, peyote, psilocybin mushrooms, iboga, San Pedro, salvia, kava, blue lotus, kratom, and more.

Why it matters

Clear information is rare. EntheoTiki counters sensationalized or sanitized narratives with careful public education.

How it connects

Future entries can cross-reference plant data with organizations and communities protecting those medicines.

Network Infrastructure

ESP Alliance Network — The Globe Project

The Globe maps Indigenous-led and conservation-aligned organizations working with sacred plant medicines worldwide. The network is vast, but scattered and largely invisible. The Globe makes it visible as a tool for connection, coordination, and accountability.

Current progress

623 mapped records across the main ESP research sheets, with Google Place metadata continuing to improve.

Views

Native-led conservation, non-native conservation, professional networks, events, and country or region profiles.

Coming next

Searchable filters by species, region, legal status, conservation priority, and organization links.
