The MOTH Project is a legal and interdisciplinary initiative that integrates concern for human rights and welfare into a larger concern for the rights and well-being of the more-than-human world and the web of life that sustains us all. 

At MOTH, we:

1. Work across disciplines and cultures to cultivate and spread ideas and practices that safeguard the more-than-human world.

2. Pursue legal actions to develop and defend the rights and welfare of nonhumans and nature.

3. Consolidate and strengthen the emerging field of inquiry and practice dedicated to MOTH law and action.
   

This takes the form of three primary types of activity: (1) convenings; (2) legal experiments; and (3) publications and multimedia. With convenings, we help consolidate the field, provide educational offerings, and facilitate interdisciplinary collaborations. The legal experiments we pursue, meanwhile, aim to protect people and planet while demonstrating how more-than-human rights operate in practice. Finally, our publications and multimedia elevate diverse voices and platform transformative ideas.
