NCD Governor Powes Parkop

Youths will gather support from residents

This is to rally residents to sign orange hands that signify their promise to do their part to make the city safe for women and girls.

The youth-driven solidarity campaign, Sanap Wantaim, is co-funded by the Australian Government and National Capital District Commission (NCDC) and is part of the UN Safe cities program.

The aim is to bring together men and boys, women and girls, to make Port Moresby a safe city.

NCD Governor Powes Parkop says everyone has a role to play in making our city a safe city for women and girls.
