The LLG had a population of 14,657 at the time of the 2011 census with an annual growth rate over the previous ten (10) years of 2.7%. Bigiti is situated appoiatel 5 iutes die est fo Mapik to ad a futhe kiloetes (1½ hours) from the Provincial capital of Wewak. Whilst the people of the Brigiti area have relatively good access to commercial services the condition of the health infrastructure in the remote rural areas of the Maprik District is poor with most people required to travel to Maprik town or beyond to the Provincial General Hospital in Wewak for treatment of all but low acuity health conditions. The rate of private vehicle ownership is very low with the majority of the population dependent upon public motor vehicles when health care is required. Since public transport generally only operates during daylight hours this further constrains access to healthcare. In 2010, the mortality rates were 79/1000 for infants under one year and 115/1000 for children under five years of age. (National Research Institute Health Report, 2010). The 2015 Health Sector Performance Annual Review (SPAR) records that only 29.80% of projected deliveries by mothers of Maprik District were supervised in a health facility despite 62.28% of expectant mothers accessing antenatal care at a health facility in the District. This reflects the unavailability of health services outside of normal public servant working hours. The supervised delivery rate is well below the National target of 80% and the National average of 37.0%. The 2015 SPAR also records that 10.81% of infants delivered in a health facility in 2015 in the District had a birth weight of less than 2.5 kilograms and that 28.31% of children under the age of 5 years examined in District health facilities were suffering some level of malnutrition. Immunisation rates for measles amongst children less than 5 years of age were just 36.50% and pentavalent immunisation rates were 48.95%. The National targets for these rates are 90%. These high infant and child mortality rates and other very poor indicators of health make a compelling case for the development of additional, more accessible health facilities within Maprik District. The proposed Community Health Post at Brigiti will be classified as a Level 2 Health Facility under the PNG National Health Serie “tadads, s ‘ole Delieatio Mati. It will be required to provide maternal and paediatric primary health clinics. Provision will also be made for 24/7 birthing and postnatal inpatient care, short term paediatric and adult inpatient services and for triage and stabilisation of critically ill patients prior to referral to higher level facilities. A modest Procedure Room will be provided to allow emergency care of trauma or serious medical conditions prior to referral. Discrete consultation rooms will be provided to ensure privacy for clients seeking care or advice for their conditions. The Brigiti Community Health Post will have five (5) inpatient beds and is expected to provide health services for up to fifty (50) persons per day. The Community Health Post staff will also have a major role in health education and promotion in the area and will coordinate the activities of Village Health Volunteers working in the catchment area to generate demand for antenatal care, supervised deliveries, family planning and immunisation. 3 The site proposed fo the Couit Health Post the ustoa oes is ko offiiall as Lo Ap, is registered as Portion 120C, Milinch of Suain, Fourmil of Wewak and District of Maprik and consists of 0.887 hectares of flat, recently cleared land and is partially occupied by three (3) derelict buildings used in the past as an Aid Post and staff accommodation respectively. The site is partially fenced and is adjacent to the Brigiti Primary School and fronted by the main Drekikir/Maprik Road. The land was formerly owned by five (5) land owning clans and was inherited by them from their forefathers. The Clans are the Kwambakum, Toskum, Gaikum, Mungokum and Kambakum and each Clan publicly nominated oe seio ee to e ou epesetaties ad agets fo the pupose of executing a transfer to the Administrator over that piece of land known as Brigiti (Lo Ap) containing 0.887 hectares and situated at Brigiti Primary School in the District of Maprik, Province of East Sepik and we do authorise our agents to accept on behalf, all moneys and considerations paid by the said Administrator in connection with the proposed transfer of the said piee of lad. The nominations were made on 16th July, 2015 at the time of compilation of the Land Investigation Report. The Brigiti landowning clans agreed initially to give their land voluntarily for the building of the Community Health Post. However, ultimately, permanent use of the land was obtained through negotiated purchase following the Land Act and Land Assessment Framework. This is in accordance with GoPNG policy, that all State infrastructure should be built on State land. The acquisition by the State of a small plot of land for the construction of the Brigiti Community Health Post was based on the las, egulatios, ad poliies of the PNG Goeet ad the ADBs “afeguad Poli Statement (2009). The Brigiti landowners say that they have ample remaining land for gardens and there will be no adverse impacts on the village economy or on individual household incomes due to the alienation of land for the Community Health Post construction. Apart from minor disturbances to the environment during construction, there are unlikely to be any adverse socio-economic impacts on the affected households and they will benefit from the land payments made for the purchase of clan land. The land was valued by the Valuer-General at K181,000 and Certificate of Alienability No. 24/10-2016 was granted by the Secretary, Department of Provincial and Local Government Affairs on 5th October, 2016. The Maprik District Development Authority formally acquired the land on behalf of the State on 13th September, 2016 he the Deed of ‘elease as siged the ladoes agets at a puli ceremony held on the site. A. PROJECT AND COMMUNITY HEALTH POST DESCRIPTION Background 1. The Rural Primary Health Services Delivery Project will strengthen the rural health system in PNG by increasing the coverage and quality of primary health care in partnership with State and non-State service providers to support the Government of PNG to implement the National Health Plan as it relates to rural health.

  • Press Release
    Press Release FAO under EU-STREIT PNG partners National Fisheries Authority to upskill government fisheries officers EU-STREIT PNG supports the country to enhance further its capacity to offer quality extension services to local fisheries-dependant communities. Wewak, ESP – The FAO-Led EU-STREIT Programme in Papua New Guinea enters into a partnership with the PNG’s National Fisheries Authority to upskill country’s fisheries officers. Under a Letter of Agreement (LoA) signed between Managing Director of National Fisheries Authority (NFA) Mr John Kasu and the FAO Country Head of Office, Mr Ken Shimizu, EU-STREIT PNG offers its support to upscale the knowledge and skills of 14 government fisheries officers through a 10-week training at the National Fisheries College (NFC) in Kavieng. Ten of these officers have already commenced Certificate One Aquaculture training course which is on-going, while four will attend the Certificate Two Small Fishing Operations (SFO) training course to start in August 2021. The participants are from 10 districts of East and West Sepik provinces. The major outputs of this collaboration are to build the capacity of officers in fisheries operations and aquaculture, enabling them to design and conduct training workshops and facilitate capacity building for fishery and aquaculture entrepreneurs. The initiative also equips the officers with understanding and skills to adopt appropriate extension tools, methods and techniques to conduct advisory and extension services to target beneficiaries. The attendees also will receive training on how to sustain and enhance their technical capacity through continuous self-learning, knowledge resources available online and peer-to-peer knowledge transfer.
