Our
Goal
Strengthen primary health care for all, focusing on a preventive and promotive model utilising a “Healthy Island” concept, and improve service delivery for the rural majority and the urban disadvantaged within East New Britain Province, New Guinea Islands Region, and the country. Incorporation of GEDSI to allow for greater inclusion within ENBPHA service delivery throughout the province.
Building a robust primary health care system as the foundation of ENBPHA service delivery — ensuring frontline care is accessible, reliable and responsive to every community.
Shifting focus from reactive treatment to proactive prevention and health promotion — empowering communities to take ownership of their own health and well-being.
Utilising the Pacific “Healthy Island” framework to guide a holistic, community-centred approach to health — encompassing environment, lifestyle, and social well-being.
Improving health services for the rural majority — bridging the gap between remote communities and quality care through outreach, mobile clinics, and community health workers.
Ensuring urban settlement and disadvantaged communities in Kokopo and Rabaul receive equitable access to health services, without falling through the gaps of urban health planning.
Contributing to health outcomes that extend beyond ENB — strengthening the New Guinea Islands Region and supporting national health goals for Papua New Guinea as a whole.
Gender Equality, Disability, and Social Inclusion (GEDSI) principles are embedded across all ENBPHA service delivery — ensuring that women, people with disabilities, and marginalised groups receive equitable, dignified, and inclusive health care throughout the province.
GEDSI FrameworkNo one is left behind. ENBPHA is committed to identifying and removing barriers — geographic, social, economic, and cultural — that prevent people from accessing the health services they are entitled to across East New Britain Province.
