Queensland Premier Anastasia Palaszczuk reaffirms the ongoing recognition of Indigenous knowledge and connection, announcing 54 First Nations rangers for 13 communities across Queensland.
The Environment Minister Meaghan Scanlon says the government will invest $24 million to help First Nations organisations foster the next generation of community leaders.
Chairperson for the Wuthathi Aboriginal Corporation, Keron Murray says securing a ranger program for the country was a monumental achievement and the culmination of more than 30 years of hard work.
