The Country Fire Authority (CFA) is a firefighting organization in Victoria, Australia, primarily responsible for managing and responding to grassfires, bushfires, and other emergencies in rural and suburban areas. Comprising trained volunteers and staff, the CFA works to prevent fires through education, fire bans, and controlled burns, while also providing rapid response when fires occur. They collaborate with other emergency services to protect communities, property, and the environment. The CFA plays a vital role in Australia's wildfire risk reduction and emergency management system, ensuring safety and resilience across the region.
