INTERNATIONAL RANGER FEDERATION

 

Founded in 1992 with a signed agreement between the Countryside Management Association (CMA), representing rangers in England and Wales; the Scottish Countryside Rangers Association (SCRA); and the U.S.Association of National Park Rangers (ANPR). The goals are to provide a forum for rangers from around the world to share their successes and failures in protecting the world's heritage and to promote information and technology transfer from countries in which protected area management enjoys broad support to countries in which protected area management is less well supported. Rangers from any country can join the IRF. The only requirements are that they have an association of protected area professionals and that they petition the IRF for affiliation.				IRF AIMS To further professional standards throughout the world and to share knowledge and resources To advance the aims of the I.U.C.Ns World Conservation Strategy To establish global communications with ranger organizations To undertake joint activities to directly support each others operations where necessary and feasible
