Mind Medicine
We almost took the Prime Minister to court.
In early 2023, medicinal use of psilocybin and other psychoactive drugs was still illegal in Australia, even for people with treatment-resistant depression. Which, in our eyes, and in the eyes of the International Criminal Court legal documents, classifies as torture. Look up Article 7 (1) (f) if you don’t believe me.
He managed to dodge it though, because right before our final concept presentation the use of these drugs was legalised in treatment, without our intervention needed.
A win for Australia, but a loss for this campaign which never went ahead.
