The work that Indigenous rangers do is REAL work, meaningful work that not only builds a sense of self worth in the rangers themselves but also helps to strengthen their communities, not least by showing an example to young people. It is also necessary environmental and cultural work, best and rightfully performed by the people who identify with and have deep cultural knowledge of the land. We owe it to the people and our country to properly support and fund this critically important initiative.
