Australian Ranger Federation

Australian Ranger Federation

The Australian Ranger Federation represents Australian park rangers.

History

The Australian Ranger Association (ARA) was formed in 1996. The first meeting held in Adelaide, South Australia. The name was changed in 2004 to the Australian Ranger Federation. This change was made to better reflect the role of the organisation and more closely affiliate it with the International Ranger Federation. The description of Federation in the title was also considered to better represent the ideals of members.

Purpose

The ARF is a professional body supporting Rangers and other professional officers involved in the conservation and management of our natural resources. The ARF also represents its members at an International level through the International Ranger Federation (IRF).
