Twinning Programs

The Twinning Program is an initiative that exists for the transfer of knowledge, experience and skills between ERF and IRF Member Associations.

Through our worldwide network of ranger associations, we encourage partnerships from different regions that we believe would benefit from joining together for regular exchanges in a twinning partnership.

In Europe we currently have 9 active twinning agreements between Ranger Associations.

Interested in twinning with rangers from another country, but don’t know how exactly to set it up?

No problem: take a look at our guidelines below. Or contact our Project Officer: projects@europeanrangers.org
