Reducing global suffering and promoting long-term human flourishing through an in-depth understanding of emergent phenomena

Who We Are

Emergence Benefactors is an incorporated nonprofit 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charity organization supporting the science of emergence.

Emergence — what many might label as spiritual, mystical, magical, psi, psychedelic, energetic, and related experiences, effects, and development.

We support the practical incorporation of that scientific knowledge into medical, clinical, therapeutic, and public health practices at a global scale to promote better outcomes for people experiencing emergent phenomena.

Our Mission

The mission of Emergence Benefactors is:

  • To broadly support healthy outcomes for individuals undergoing the process of emergence
  • To fund and support rigorous, objective scientific research into the study of emergent experiences or emergent practices and their effects
  • To fund and support the development of ontologically-agnostic clinical knowledge of emergent practices and effects
  • To promote the culturally-sensitive incorporation of this scientific and clinical knowledge into global mainstream evidence-based medical, clinical, therapeutic, scientific, public health, public policy, and general public knowledge bases.

We support the general mission and roadmap of the Emergent Phenomenology Research Consortium (EPRC) and their allies. The EPRC white paper provides details regarding:

We believe these projects will take at least few hundred people a few decades and cost a few hundred million dollars. We intend to make sure that those people have the funding and support for those decades to fully complete the EPRC roadmap.
