Hi, nice to meet you 👋
At Hive, we are building a globally inclusive, year-round digital home for farmed animal advocates. One key way we do this is through the Hive Highlights newsletter. Every 2 weeks, our team shares practical insights, updates, and opportunities from across the movement so you can stay updated and inspired.
Hive Highlights started way back in 2022 by Sofia Balderson, Hive’s Co-Founder and Executive Director. She launched it as a way to keep friends and colleagues in the loop. Since then, Hive has grown into an ecosystem of programs, including a vibrant Slack community, events, our Global Ambassador Program, and strategic connections that help advocates collaborate and grow their impact around the world.
What You’ll Get from Hive Highlights
News and updates relevant to the movement
Jobs, opportunities, funding, and upcoming events
Resources including research, podcasts, books, and videos

Hive’s entire ecosystem of programs to help farmed animal advocates thrive is 100% powered by philanthropy.
