“Rare is the leading behavior change organization in conservation and sustainable development. In our more than four decades of work, rare has launched over 450 behavior change campaigns (known as "pride") in more than 60 countries, inspiring local communities to adopt more sustainable fishing habits, end deforestation, preserve habitat, and save species. Pride increases and accelerates the adoption of conservation solutions - and the change lasts. Rare's people-centered, participatory approach to conservation empowers local leaders and elevates the role of fishers, farmers, and other people who depend on nature in local decision-making and governance. This community-led approach is buoyed by partnerships with officials at all levels of government from mayors to ministers and with public and private institutions, universities and other organizations capable of removing barriers and paving the way for enduring solutions.”
