I've seen and been involved in the ranger programs on country first hand. Of all the programs on remote communities, this seems to be the one where traditional community values and the government's priorities of jobs and economic growth marry. So many great outcomes for so many families and the whole of Australia. Such strong community support for this. This work excites me!

We pay our respects to all the First Nations people around Australia and their unbroken commitment to keep Country strong on land and sea. We acknowledge Indigenous partners, Traditional Owners, Elders past, present and emerging and extend our appreciation of their support and guidance of our daily work.
