About us
World Female Ranger Week (WFRW) is a global awareness week, taking place on June 23-30th annually, to celebrate and support female rangers around the world. WFRW was created by UK charity, How Many Elephants (1186238), founded by Holly Budge, as part of its mission to support conservation efforts worldwide. Currently, less than 11% of the global wildlife ranger workforce is female. How Many Elephants (HME) aims to collate gender-specific data about female anti-poaching rangers, identify their needs, find tangible solutions, and build effective policies to contribute toward positive outcomes for female rangers and conservation as a whole. www.worldfemalerangerweek.org

Less than 11% of the world's rangers are women, but their work in conservation has a significant impact on local communities and socio-cultural practices, in which women often play a central role. To celebrate World Female Ranger Week, Holly Budge, the founder, highlights the need for gender equality is louder than ever. Women possess excellent communication skills and a caring nature, which brings a unique perspective to conservation efforts. According to research conducted by the UN, women invest up to 80% of their income into their families, making them a crucial source of support for education, healthcare, and community resilience. Women are not only defying gender stereotypes but also revolutionizing the rules of conservation, blazing a trail where they stand side by side with men in safeguarding endangered wildlife and natural habitats. #worldfemalerangerweek

Loving this article on newly recruited female rangers in Zimbabwe in The Ethicalist Magazine written by founder, Holly Budge ❤️🐘
Inspirational Keynote Speaker Supercharging Businesses with Game-Changing Leadership Insights 🚀 First Woman to Skydive Everest [+Summit] 🐘 Founder of How Many Elephants NGO & Wildlife Positive Travel 👉 Let’s Chat!
Delighted to have my article published in The Ethicalist Magazine on newly recruited female rangers in Hwange National Park in Zimbabwe, as part of World Female Ranger Week. Conservation & Wildlife Fund has recently integrated female rangers into their teams in the buffer zones around Hwange National Park. These women are doing more than patrolling; they’re helping to build bridges with local communities, ease tensions, and fostering a spirit of cooperation that’s essential for protecting wildlife. ‘I believe mixed [ranger] units are the way to go as women bring with them a different dimension of thought and ability that adds value to a team who already possess great skill,’ says Nigel Kuhn at Conservation & Wildlife Fund. 👉 Read full article: https://lnkd.in/eU7KsC2U #worldfemalerangerweek #zimbabwe #conservation Zimbabwe Parks & Wildlife Management Authority (ZimParks) Forestry Commission Shelley Cox African Bush Camps The Amalinda Safari Collection Hideaways Africa Imvelo Safari Lodges Gorges Lodge Painted Dog Conservation PANTHERA How Many Elephants - International NGO 📸 Nigel Kuhn taken during a training exercise.
