Expressions of Interest sought for Aboriginal Ranger Program

The State Government is committed to improving community wellbeing through economic opportunities and building leadership in remote and regional communities. The Government is encouraging Aboriginal organisations to apply for funding under the Aboriginal Ranger Program, which will be facilitated through an investment of $20 million over five years.
 
Funding will enable the employment and training of Aboriginal rangers to undertake land and sea management, including tourism operations and protection of cultural and biodiversity values across a range of tenures in remote and regional Western Australia.
 
The WA Government Indigenous Ranger Program will be administered by the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (DBCA). Expressions of Interest are now open and closes on October 31, 2017.

Application forms and guidelines are available from the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions website at http://www.dbca.wa.gov.au/aboriginalrangerprogram.
