Every World Ranger Congress PAWA provides inkind strategic operational and organisational support to the IRF through CORA to help protected area workers attend this important event.

The World Ranger Congress is an initiative of the International Ranger Federation (IRF). It brings together Rangers from all over the world, giving them the opportunity to learn new skills, share knowledge and create partnerships. It occurs every three years in a different location, allowing host countries from each IRF region to raise the profile of Rangers locally and internationally. It allows them to showcase their successes, to identify how they’re addressing their regional challenges and share their knowledge and skills with colleagues from around the world.

Recently PAWA secured funding through NPWS and our own fundraising to sponsor one NSW ranger and an Oceania ranger to attend the 2024 Congress in France.

Joining PAWA provides you with IRF membership and the ability to attend the congress.
