Arribada Initiative
Arribada is a not-for-profit, UK-based conservation technology research and development organisation that specialises in open source solutions. We co-develop open, customisable and impact-driven conservation technologies for conservation organisations across the globe, driving down costs and scaling up access to the tools and solutions we need to solve conservation challenges. As a Community Interest Company, we also re-invest proceeds from the development of tools and technologies to fund local conservation technology education clubs, providing free after-school digital literacy workshops and STEM activities to <13 year olds, that we call Club Arribada! We believe that open solutions can deliver better, cheaper, reliable solutions and are working to help the global conservation community access open solutions, so together, we can better conserve, monitor and protect our planet.
