Highlights: Gender & Inclusion Activity Delivery – Hiri Koiari West District*

One Netball PNG delivered its inaugural Gender & Inclusion Activity for Phase III yesterday at Papa and Lealea Netball Associations in Hiri Koiari West District.

*Participants*: People living with disability (PLWD) and members of the LGBTI community.

*Lessons delivered*: Modified sessions on:
- Diversity & Inclusion
- Leadership
- Communication
- Gender Equality

*How we made it accessible*: Balloons, softer size 4 balls, portable netball posts, and accessible venues to meet participants’ special requirements. We prioritised a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment for everyone.

*Language*: Lessons were delivered in English, Motu, Tok Pisin, and local Koita language by One Netball trained coaches, with support from guardians and Association Executives.

Seeing our participants learn, smile, and have fun was the best outcome for us.

*One Netball PNG – West Hiri Koiari Returns Home After Successful Scoping Exercise*

The One Netball PNG West Hiri Koiari team has arrived safely back in town following a very successful scoping exercise.

The strategic hubs visited were Roku, Porebada, Boera, Lealea, and Papa Netball Associations. These associations form part of the Hiri Koiari Netball Association Structure (HKNA), a national affiliate of Netball PNG Inc.

The scoping exercise was mapped out in preparation for the upcoming "Gender and Inclusion Activity" part of the Phase III Pilot Project.

The delivery plan is to implement life and social skills, alongside modified netball skills, for identified participants with disability (PLWD) and LGBTI participants.
. “Getting the support from the respective communities is satisfying, as it makes our work easier,” said delivery coach Tau Uea...

The scoping exercise sets the pace for effective delivery. We thank all Association Presidents and their executives for ensuring the groundwork was done properly. Great teamwork indeed!

One Netball PNG is a partnership program with Netball Australia, delivered under the Team Up Framework, and supported by the Australian Government.
