Meet the 2026 CAF Grantees

This year’s 14 grantees represent a panoply of intellectual and creative work being produced on behalf of animals. There’s a theologian, a philosopher, a science policy expert, a cultural historian, an environmental scientist, and a professor of ethnic studies. There’s a filmmaker, an animator, a writer, a collagist, a curator, and a theater director. They advocate for orangutans, turtles, cats, rats, whales, and guinea fowl; they come from Argentina, Canada, India, Indonesia, Kenya, Mexico, Ukraine, and the United States; and they provide a glimpse into the depth and range of the 658 people who applied this year.
