Rangeland Stewardship Council
protecting global
rangelands
The Rangeland Stewardship Council (RSC) is dedicated to advancing the sustainable management of global rangelands, recognising their pivotal role in supporting human livelihoods, ensuring food security, and preserving biodiversity. As a non-profit organisation, we strive to promote responsible stewardship practices that harmonise the production of essential resources—such as meat, milk, leather, fibre and grains—with the conservation of wildlife habitats and the mitigation of climate change.
Our Mission and Commitment
At the heart of our mission is the belief that enhanced stewardship of rangelands can catalyse positive transformations across diverse supply chains associated with materials derived from rangelands. We are committed to empowering stakeholders with the knowledge and tools needed to navigate the evolving landscape of responsible sourcing. By fostering collaboration and advocating for improved management practices, the RSC seeks to contribute to a more sustainable and resilient future, where rangelands thrive as vital components of global ecosystems.
