Jeremy Weate (born in 1969 in Wheaton Aston) studied philosophy at the University of Hull, the University of Liège and the University of Warwick, graduating with a PhD in European philosophy from Warwick in 1998. His PhD thesis was Phenomenology and Difference: the Body, Architecture and Race.

Weate is the author of the children's book A Young Person's Guide to Philosophy[1], which was published by Dorling Kindersley in 1998 and translated into 9 languages.

After completing his PhD, Weate became an international development consultant, focusing on transparency, accountability and good governance in the extractive industries. He has worked in over twenty-five countries across Africa and Asia on projects related to the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative[2], policy and legal frameworks as well as political economy analyses.

After fifteen years as an international development consultant, Weate switched careers and now runs an ibogaine-assisted retreat centre - Tabula Rasa - in Portugal. He is also Executive Director of the Global Ibogaine Therapy Alliance. Weate was featured in a December 2017 article on ibogaine in The Observer[3] and was one of the organisers of the European Ibogaine Forum in Vienna in 2017.[4]
