About this survey

The Indigenous Rangers Program (IRP) is expanding. The aim is to double the number of rangers to 3,800 by the end of the decade.

This survey asks for your views about aspects of the proposed Grant Opportunity Guidelines for the Government’s second round of Ranger Expansion funding (Round 2). This round builds on the original objectives from the grant opportunity from 2024 (Round 1). It also takes into account outcomes and feedback from Round 1 applicants. 

Round 2 is expected to deliver approximately over 800 new ranger jobs. This equates to about 500 full time equivalent (FTE) positions. There is around $55 million (GST exclusive) per financial year available. 

It is expected that Round 2 of the IRP Expansion will open in 2025.

Anyone interested in Indigenous rangers can complete this survey. This includes individuals, communities and organisations.

Your feedback will inform the design of the guidelines for the Round 2 grant opportunity.

The survey should take about 15 minutes to complete. You don't need to answer all the questions. You can just answer the questions you feel comfortable to answer. You will not be able to save and return to this survey.
