Description

Rangers are the front-line guardians of natural resources and are often required to work under extremely difficult conditions and at great personal risk. Under these circumstances, the potential impact of employment conditions on performance is heightened. Of particular importance to occupational welfare is the ability to afford short-term and long-term healthcare if needed, and the ability to ensure that one's family will be taken care of should unfortunate events occur.

The purpose of this consultancy is to inform the establishment of effective ranger insurance mechanisms in selected focal countries.

The objectives are
1. To explore and define the characteristics of effective ranger insurance models.
2. To understand in detail current ranger insurance frameworks, and the polices and frameworks that influence and / or determine them, in selected focal countries.
3. In selected focal countries, to provide recommendations for: (1) effective ranger insurance models; and (2) the policy change needed to realise these models.
