Summary
Several studies have been conducted on the challenges faced by government rangers, however, there is little information about the informal community ranger sector. This study seeks to build on contributions made by community rangers to highlight their experiences and challenges, including how gender may play a role in the challenges faced. It will also examine their crucial role as environmental human rights defenders (EHRDs) in deterring illegal wildlife trade and help to design strengthened community-centred IWT interventions across East Africa.
