About Us
The Meloy Fund is managed by Meloy Fund GP, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Rare, a global conservation organization dedicated to inspiring communities to adopt behaviors that protect the natural resources that sustain them.
The Meloy Fund partners with Rare’s global fisheries recovery program, Fish Forever, to break apart the tragedy of the commons which, under open-access regimes, has led to rampant overfishing and destructive fishing for decades.
As a result of placing local ownership of fisheries in fishers’ hands for the first time, financial incentives can be directed to safely motivate the adoption of sustainable behaviors.
