The Importance of Community

In January 2023 we ran a community survey to better understand how Hive helps farmed animal advocates. We received a total of 135 responses. Here are some results:

An impactful connection can
change your life. 

Your new connections may refer you to a job, or co-found a project, or provide you with research that allows you to be significantly more impactful in your work.

Hive focuses on connections because they were neglected in the farmed animal advocacy movement. Traditional routes of networking, such as in-person conferences, are difficult for a global movement that is funding-constrained. This leaves a large proportion of advocates lack the resources and opportunities. We see this gap as an opportunity to help all advocates get connected and collaborate on meaningful work for animals. 

What our community members say

  • “I can't say enough good things about the importance of Hive for the animal advocacy movement. We finally have a place where people around the world can connect [...]".
