The 2026 IPA Transition
As Indigenous Protected Areas (IPAs) transition from NIAA to DCCEEW on April 1st, Ranger Hub is being built to provide the clarity, checklists, and coordination support that Ranger teams need to navigate the shift.
Guidance by Rangers, for Rangers.
Read our first guide: The 2026 IPA Transition Explained →Information
Decoding policy changes, funding announcements, and program requirements into plain-English guidance you can actually use — on Country and in the office.
Coordination
Templates, checklists, and tools for grant writing, acquittal reporting, and Healthy Country Planning. The stuff that takes hours to build from scratch — ready to adapt and use.
Community
A network where coordinators, rangers, hosts, and PBCs can find staffing help, share what's working, and connect across the isolation that makes this work hard.
About RangerHub
RangerHub is independent. It's not funded by DCCEEW, NIAA, or any government body. It's being built by people who have spent years coordinating ranger programs, writing the grants, managing the relationships, and understanding what communities actually need when a coordinator leaves or a funding round opens.
The goal is simple: the information and tools that used to live in one experienced coordinator's head — available to everyone who needs them.
