Iboga Leadership Summit 2026

The Iboga Leadership Summit 2026 is a unique gathering in Gabon that aims to bridge the gap between traditional Bwiti practices and modern scientific research. Highlighting the sacred cultural significance of the iboga plant, the summit unites 10th-generation shamans and community leaders with biomedical researchers, therapists, and conservationists. The event provides a forum for discussing the potential of ibogaine for healing and personal transformation while respecting the ancestral traditions that have stewarded this medicine for centuries.

The four-day programme includes sessions on the origins and applications of iboga, its role in modern medicine, and the societal health implications of its use. A significant portion of the event is dedicated to cultural immersion, including a field trip to a traditional Bwiti village to experience rituals and community dynamics first-hand. The summit targets an international audience of medical professionals, students, and natural resource managers interested in ethical and sustainable practices surrounding iboga.
