We understand the country, its unique opportunities, challenges & people.
We take pride in our leaders
Leadership is key.
Based on efforts across the nation, as well as working with a wide variety of local and international partners, we have come to agree with the great leadership expert and author John Maxwell when he says, “Everything rises and falls on leadership.”
Because of this understanding, while still continuing with our health and education projects, we have shifted our focus primarily to the development of great leaders and strategic resource management.
Programs
Senisim PNG
Senisim PNG is a strategic partnership between the Papua New Guinea Tribal Foundation (“Tribal Foundation”) and the Maxwell Leadership Foundation. Senisim PNG will work over a 5-year period and focus on Injecting good values and servant leadership into society, creating a national movement of like-minded people who truly care about the future of Papua New Guinea, and focusing on improving three common agenda items over the five years. The first common agenda item is to end sorcery accusation-related violence (“SARV”) in Papua New Guinea.
Senisim Pasin
Senisim Pasin is a culturally changing national campaign centered around our film by the same name. It takes a positive and innovative approach to the dark subject of gender-based violence and often leaves participants aspiring to be part of the movement. Senisim Pasin is built on the belief that Papua New Guinea can improve how women are valued by society, and, in fact, the change is already happening.
Amelia Earhart Scholarship and Memorial
Strategic Health Initatives
The Tribal Foundation is dedicated to the health and wellness of the people of Papua New Guinea. Towards that, we partner with Provincial leaders as well as corporations and fellow NGOs to deliver medical supplies as well as introduce innovative medical processes and equipment to Papua New Guinean health care workers and administrators.
Strategic Local Programs
We support several local organizations in Papua New Guinea that provide services in the health and education sectors. Our focus with these partners is to enhance efforts by increasing their capacity and assisting with their development. We also work closely with commercial operations that provide assistance alongside their business ventures.
