Building Global
Wildfire Capacity.

Fire is global—so are we. We train people, empower communities, and develop leaders through a model that transcends borders. By centering practitioners, we ensure that local expertise leads the way in transforming how humanity lives with fire.

Wildfire International's mission is to build global wildfire capacity. Learn more.

our origin

Wildfire International began in 2017 as The American Wildfire Experience, a project dedicated to elevating the stories and lived experiences of those on the firelines. As our work quietly expanded internationally, our founder recognized a critical need to globalize and empower the wildland fire workforce.

In 2025, we rebranded to Wildfire International. No longer just a U.S. organization working abroad, we are now a global entity with partners across the world. This new chapter is dedicated to building global capacity through training, leadership development, and community empowerment—aligning international standards to ensure that wherever fire occurs, the people on the ground are equipped to meet the challenge.
