Boilerplate

About Pronatalist.org

Short: Pronatalist.org is a big-tent, optimistic movement addressing demographic collapse, run by Simone and Malcolm Collins under the Pragmatist Foundation.

Long: Pronatalist.org works to address demographic collapse — the fall of birth rates below replacement level across the developed world — by raising awareness, promoting low-cost non-coercive policy, protecting cultural autonomy, and connecting pronatalist families. The organization is vehemently against any efforts that limit reproductive freedom or curtail cultural autonomy, including the choice to be single or childless. It is run by Simone and Malcolm Collins — authors of the Pragmatist's Guide book series and hosts of the near-daily Based Camp podcast — under the Pragmatist Foundation.
