Akashinga, (formerly the International Anti-Poaching Foundation (IAPF)) is a non-profit organisation registered in Australia, predominantly operating on the African continent.[1][2] The group initially created a structured military-like approach to conservation, employing tactics and technology generally reserved for the modern-day battlefield,[3] and has since moved to a community oriented approach. This has included the training of local women as rangers.[4]
