The annual IDA Conference is the largest gathering of Indigenous rangers in Australia. At the conference, we focus on strengthening the alliance, yarning about matters of regional importance, sharing information and most importantly, connecting with each other.
In 2022, there were over 400 delegates from 50 ranger groups who made the journey to Yulara and Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park. Traditional Owners and Indigenous rangers discussed collaborative land management priorities for one-third of the Australian land mass. Looking after desert country is a big job, so it is vital that rangers continue to strengthen our knowledge, skills and connections in the traditions of our ancestors. Palya!
