Hub work

GARN is a dynamic and diverse international network of organizations, communities and individuals who work together towards advancing the Rights of Nature around the globe and transforming how humans relate to Mother Earth. 

It exists to enable its members to be more effective by connecting and collaborating with others who share this worldview in order to recognize and uphold the rights of Nature as a means of transforming exploitative systems (particularly legal systems) that enable, promote and legitimize ecological destruction. 

In order to work effectively throughout the world, GARN works with decentralized hubs to coordinate and support the activities of members within a particular region or area (regional hubs) or with common characteristics and interests (e.g. Indigenous People, young people or legal experts). 

These hubs are established and run by GARN members who work in a particular geographical area or who share particular characteristics (e.g. young people).

The purpose of the hubs is to increase localized and focused support and networking opportunities for the organizations, communities and individuals working on Rights of Nature in a region or within a theme/sector; build collaborations and co-create collective, strategies for the recognition and implementation of the Rights of Nature in a region/theme/sector; provide support to local and regional efforts, respond to urgent needs and calls to action and build visibility for key Rights of Nature efforts in a region/theme/sector.
