PROUDLY PRODUCED BY

The goal of this directory is to give women’s groups throughout Papua New Guinea access to information about each other and related organizations so that they can build networks to achieve equality for women. We hope that this will be a powerful tool for women’s groups here in Papua New Guinea. This list is not meant to be exhaustive, but rather is intended as a living document to give readers an entry point for finding organizations that work on women’s issues in Papua New Guinea. Organizations may have their information added or updated by contacting the U.S. Embassy: U.S. Embassy Port Moresby
