The DHARMA (Department of Heuristics And Research on Material Applications) Initiative was a scientific research project that had a large presence on the Island between the 1970s and early 1990s. It is represented by variations of an octagonal logo that appear on most of its products and stations.

Most information on the project is derived from the Swan Orientation film and the ARG The Lost Experience. The former detailed some of the project's aims and a brief history, while the latter expanded greatly on this, particularly with regards to the company which funded the Initiative, the Hanso Foundation.

The DHARMA Initiative in large part ended after the Purge in 1992, an event that saw the death of almost all of its members on the Island at the hands of Benjamin Linus and "the Hostiles." Indeed, The Lost Experience confirmed that the Hanso Foundation cut the DHARMA Initiative's funding in 1987. However, 2008 has seen an attempt to reconstitute the project, with advertisements seeking volunteers for the Dharma Initiative Recruiting Project. The Project was canceled, however, due to financial concerns.
