Australia invests over $100 million per year in Papua New Guinea’s health sector, through bilateral, regional and global programs. 

Australia does so to support the Government of PNG’s efforts to improve the health of its citizens, in line with the PNG National Health Plan, by focusing on three health outcomes: 

  • improved prevention, detection, and response to emerging and existing high burden communicable disease and health security threats 

  • improved rural primary health care through stronger health systems, including through better use of PNG’s own financial and human resources. 

  • integrated family planning, HIV, and sexual and reproductive health services.
