GARC: Committed to a rabies-free future
Since 2007, GARC has been driving rabies elimination through a One Health approach. To end rabies, we believe it starts with our communities. From individual champions and community groups to national governments, we empower people to lead and sustain their rabies elimination efforts.
We are committed to creating a world free from dog-mediated rabies. From founding World Rabies Day to launching Communities Against Rabies (CAR) in 2023, we empower individuals, NGOs, and governments in 35+ countries through a structured, science-led approach. Read more about our story here.
We build, strengthen, and empower
We build and strengthen lasting capacity through innovative tools, expert guidance, and community-driven initiatives. The GARC tools empower stakeholders to have a long-lasting, measurable impact. We believe in collaboration: Our established, structured programs offer you the opportunity to make a long-term, sustainable impact where you are working towards rabies elimination.
