Maldhari Rural Action Group (MARAG) is a grassroots organization working since 1994 for the education, organization and empowerment of the communities who rely on Common Property Resources. These communities include Pastoralists, Dalits, Tribals, youth, women, children and other marginalized groups.

MARAG focuses predominantly on promoting and utilizing the knowledge of rural people who possess a great understanding and innate knowledge of their unique ecosystems. Since inception MARAG has worked with people from marginalized communities, who within the complex socio-political climate, are vulnerable to exploitation.
