Mission & Goals
Psychedelic Access and Research European Alliance (PAREA) is a non-profit, membership-led, multistakeholder and multidisciplinary partnership. It brings together patient organizations, medical associations, scientific societies, umbrella coalitions, psychedelic foundations, and for-profit sector. PAREA works to expand access to quality mental health care by advancing mental health innovation across Europe. Its aim is to ensure the scientifically grounded, safe, equitable, and people-centred integration of psychedelic-assisted care into European health systems, making psychedelic therapies reimbursable and accessible for those who do not benefit from existing treatments.
