Description:
Join us for a live Drug Buds podcast recording featuring Heath from Get Sensible and CSSDP & Justin from the Halifax Psychedelic Society
About this event
This event is co-hosted by the Halifax Psychedelic Society & Get Sensible (A program by Canadian Students for Sensible Drug Policy - CSSDP)
This is a 2 part event:
Part 1: Podcast with Q&A
- Listen to Heath from CSSDP's Get Sensible and Justin from the Halifax Psychedelic Society talk about the emerging medicalization of psychedelics. They will draw from successes and failures of the medical cannabis movement, as we navigate the path forward with psychedelics. The discussion will be followed by a question & answer period.
Part 2: Storytelling
- This will be an opportunity for audience members to come up on stage and share a story of their own. We recognize the stigma surrounding substance use, and know that healing can come through sharing our experiences. In order to build better drug policies, hearing stories from the community is essential. More details/parameters for story telling will be shared at the event, and people can sign up during the break after Part 1.
- We know that sharing about substance use can be vulnerable, and possibly triggering for listeners. We will have some folks at the event who can be available to hold space if anyone needs a listening ear or a safer space to get grounded. This will be in the theatre lobby, away from the stage/audience.
