  • I spend the last three years working with NGOs in all areas that include management, education, training, and or advocacy on current issues affecting the local Papua New Guineans, thus I am very much interested in some of the position s advertised. I like working with such an innovative organization who has the vision to educate and bring about services to the vulnerable population of PNG. I need direction on how to apply for Women’s Empowerment and Protection Manager.
