Who We Are
CLARIFI represents the next generation of an Indigenous-led global movement to halt biodiversity loss and combat climate change—championing and securing the rights of 1.8 billion Indigenous, Afro-descendant, and local community members. This represents an important paradigm shift, where support lives beyond any specific project and aims instead to enable holistic community and organizational strengthening.
What We Do
To support the self-determined priorities of Indigenous Peoples, Afro-descendant Peoples, and local communities, CLARIFI ensures that communities have the resources needed to shape their future by acting as a trusted bridge between communities and funders. We aim to remove the barriers that have traditionally kept these groups from being able to connect with one another. We partner with local organizations in all ecosystems to deploy funds from large and often complex donors to frontline communities as well as by providing fiscal sponsorship.
Why We Do It
Launched in 2022 by Rights and Resources Initiative (RRI) and Campaign for Nature (CfN), CLARIFI builds on the RRI coalition’s 20 years of experience in grantmaking, support, and achievement when it comes to protecting rights and CfN’s global advocacy for a rights-based approach to conservation. The RRI coalition’s deep trust and genuine partnership with almost 200 rights-holder organizations and ongoing dialogue serve as the foundation for CLARIFI’s work.
