Do you have a dream project you have been holding off because of the lack of funding?

We have great news for you! 🥳
ReRoot Asia Fund (RAF) is back to help make your dream project a reality!

RAF is our regranting program that funds grassroots initiatives to promote plant-based diet for the animals, planet, and people. It is for advocates in Asia who are motivated to kickstart or grow their project, yet are met with challenges in accessing international funding.

This year, we are looking to support projects in: Taiwan, Japan, Philippines, Indonesia, Nepal, and Pakistan! 🌱

We believe that for our movement to grow sustainably, it is important to nurture projects advocating for animals from diverse cultural contexts as well as tactics and interventions.

RAF will allow us to support YOU to lead the movement!

We are so excited to see your creative and strategic plans for your initiatives 💚

Apply by June 20th!

Everyone, please meet Dhuha, our incoming Country Director for Pakistan! 🧡🌱

Dhuha is a feminist organizer, researcher, and writer with a background in the social sciences. She enjoys analyzing cultural shifts and studying the intersections of gender and class with politics. Some of her written work has been published in multiple sections of Dawn, Pakistan’s premier newspaper.

In 2024, she was part of the organizing effort for the VegFest Mela in Karachi, which was Pakistan‘s first-ever plant-based festival. The event brought together 200+ people and helped generate dialogue on intersecting issues like animal rights, food justice, gender, climate, and class.

She hopes to continue to work on bridging differences between people and progressive causes through an intersectional political understanding and sustained movement building.

We are honored to have you with us Dhuha! 🌼 Please join us in welcoming the lovely and trailblazing Dhuha to AAA! 👇
