OUR MISSION
At the Kambo Practitioner Alliance (KPA), our mission is to honour the sacred traditions of Kambo while integrating modern best practices to ensure safety and accessibility. We are committed to upholding the highest standards of care, training practitioners to deliver this powerful medicine with respect, integrity, and responsibility. We believe in fostering a deep understanding of Kambo, encompassing both its traditional roots and its potential within a contemporary context.

Our core values guide our work and shape our community:
​
Respect for Tradition:
We deeply respect the indigenous origins of Kambo and the traditional knowledge holders who have preserved this medicine for generations. We are committed to upholding the integrity of these traditions and ensuring they are honoured in all aspects of our work. This includes acknowledging the Matsés tribe, from whom we ethically source our Kambo, and supporting their cultural preservation through direct contributions. We believe that respecting tradition is essential for maintaining the potency and efficacy of Kambo.
​
Safety and Responsibility:
The safety and well-being of both practitioners and those receiving Kambo are paramount. We prioritise rigorous training, adherence to best practices, and ongoing support to ensure the safe and responsible administration of Kambo. This commitment to safety extends to every aspect of our training programs, from proper handling techniques to understanding contraindications and managing potential adverse reactions. We strive to create a culture of safety consciousness within our community.
​
Ethical Practice:
We are committed to ethical conduct in all our interactions, including transparent communication, informed consent, and respect for individual autonomy. We strive to create a culture of integrity and accountability within our community. This means being honest about the potential benefits and risks of Kambo, respecting client confidentiality, and avoiding any exploitation of individuals seeking healing.
​
Community and Connection:
We believe in the power of community and foster a supportive network for Kambo practitioners worldwide. We encourage collaboration, knowledge sharing, and mutual support among our members. We understand that practitioners thrive when they are connected to a supportive network of peers, and we actively cultivate this sense of belonging within the KPA.
​
Sustainability:
We are dedicated to the sustainable harvesting of Kambo and work in partnership with indigenous communities to ensure the long-term health of the Amazon rainforest and the preservation of this valuable medicine. We recognise that the health of the rainforest is inextricably linked to the continued availability of Kambo, and we are committed to responsible sourcing practices that protect this vital ecosystem.
​
Continuous Learning:
We are committed to ongoing learning and development, both for ourselves and our practitioners. We strive to stay informed about the latest research and best practices related to Kambo and to share this knowledge within our community. We believe that continuous learning is essential for maintaining the highest standards of practice and ensuring that our practitioners are equipped with the most up-to-date information.
​
Service and Healing:
Ultimately, our mission is to serve the well-being of individuals and communities through the responsible and ethical use of Kambo. We believe in the transformative potential of this medicine and are dedicated to making it accessible to those who can benefit from it. We see Kambo as a powerful tool for healing on multiple levels – physical, emotional, and spiritual – and we are dedicated to facilitating access to this transformative medicine in a safe and responsible manner.
