Sign the petition for more Indigenous rangers in Queensland

    SIGN THE PETITION FOR MORE QUEENSLAND INDIGENOUS RANGERS

    Indigenous rangers are working for Queensland.

    Across some of our state's most precious landscapes, Indigenous rangers are at the frontline of caring for wildlife and wild places. Rangers work to control the spread of weeds and the threat of feral animals, limit dangerous wildfires, protect threatened species on the land and the sea, maintain tourism facilities and cultural sites, and more. 

    Indigenous ranger jobs also support cultural strength, create meaningful work for people in regional and remote Queensland, open up new opportunities for men and women, young and old, and create genuine and positive partnerships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians. 

    Indigenous rangers are producing environmental, economic and social outcomes for the benefit of all Queenslanders. Join us in calling for a long term plan for more Indigenous ranger jobs in Queensland.

    This message will be sent to the candidates in your electorate and copied to the Premier, Leader of the Opposition, Environment Minister and Shadow Environment Minister

    Now is an important time to hear your plans for the future. How many new Indigenous ranger jobs will you and your party commit to across Queensland?

    Indigenous Rangers do a great job of managing land and sea country to control fire, feral animals, invasive weeds, ghost nets and much more, at the same time as creating local jobs that people are proud to do.
