A draft of this thesis was edited by Elite Editing. Editorial intervention was restricted to Standards D and E of the Australian Standards for Editing Practice, as per The Australian National University policy Higher Degree by Research: Editing of Theses. Sections of Chapter 5: Good Men, Bad Women and Narratives of Violence were previously published as: Lusby, Stephanie. 2017. ‘Securitisation, development and the invisibility of gender’. In Transformations of Gender in Melanesia, edited by Martha MacIntyre and Ceridwen Spark, 23-44. Canberra: ANU Press. The content of the sections used in the thesis benefitted from the editorial suggestions of the volume editors and reviewers. v Abstract This thesis investigates ambivalences and tensions in the ways that men and their communities frame what it means to be a raitman, a ‘real’ man or ‘good’ man, in contemporary East New Britain, Papua New Guinea. In looking at the refraction of aspirational masculinity through lived experiences of men and their communities, I argue that to affect change, there is a need for more nuanced and politicised conceptualisations of masculinities in the context of campaigns for equal gender rights. The figure of the raitman is a common trope in Papua New Guinean and international campaigns to address HIV and AIDS, sikAIDS in Tok Pisin, and violence against women. This figure is imagined as a perfect role model who is compliant with the directives of prevention slogans: a wearer of condoms, a faithful partner, non-violent and in control of everything from anger to sexual appetite, to alcohol consumption. In reality, these tropes manifest unevenly and ambivalently in the lives of men, their partners and their broader communities as they are refracted through personal and collective aspirations; loving and complex relationships with peers, families and intimate partners; existing normative ideas of the most esteemed way of being a man; and collective efforts to navigate structural violence and uncertainty. Within this milieu, I consider how men’s efforts to navigate ideas of aspirational masculinity, and their desire to position themselves as raitman, impact upon how they relate to and position women, and what this can tell us about efforts to address issues of gender violence and inequality in Papua New Guinea. The thesis takes the transnational campaign framing of good masculinity as a starting point and asks how these attempts to influence gender norms and practices are heard and adopted, or subverted, in everyday encounters. The research draws upon ethnographic fieldwork conducted in urban, semi-rural and rural-remote field sites in 2012-13. The thesis is anchored in feminist scholarship and engages with literature from anthropology, geography and development studies to complement the narratives of women, men and communities heard through the fieldwork. In doing so, the thesis provides an account of how gendered norms intersect with, and are made malleable by, individual and collective development aspirations, and experiences of structural violence and precarity. vi Table of Contents Declaration of Originality ......................................................................................... ii Acknowledgements ................................................................................................... iii Table of Contents .................................................................................................... vii List of Figures ............................................................................................................ ix List of Abbreviations .................................................................................................. x Referencing of Interviews ......................................................................................... xi Note on Translation ................................................................................................... xi Note on Use of Acronyms ........................................................................................

  • Project Proposal Form 2019
    Project Proposal Form 2019 Introduction One of the key objectives of the National ICT Policy is to ensure equitable access to Information and Communication Technology Services. The policy objective is founded on the premise that ICT is seen as necessary tool for economic growth and social development. The Universal Access Board within NICTA is mandated to give effect to this policy by identifying and developing projects aimed at bridging the telecommunications and ICT gap that limits the opportunities available to ordinary citizens. Within this context, the National Information and Communications Technology Authority (NICTA) is inviting stakeholders including the general public, ICT operators and service providers to propose or suggest any projects or programs that you think are consistent with the overarching goals within the ICT sector and that NICTA should consider in its current or future programs. Proposals that are accepted will be considered by the UAS Board for potential inclusion in the 2019 UAS programs. Scope of Proposals All stakeholders including the general public, ICT operators and service providers are invited to propose or suggest any project for NICTA’s consideration. The submitted proposals should seek to promote the long-term economic and social development of Papua New Guinea through projects that will among other things, encourage the development of ICT infrastructure and improve the availability of ICT services within the country including under-served communities and geographic areas. Proponents are advised to note that submitting proposals does not secure funding/assistance from NICTA in any form or guarantee inclusion in the UAS programs. Submitted proposals will only be received as project concepts for NICTA’s consideration.

  • 13. Eruptions at Rabaul: 1994–1999
    13. Eruptions at Rabaul: 1994–1999 Many of our old folk (our patuana) knew that an eruption was imminent. The strength of the earthquakes told them that an eruption was only a matter of days or hours away … . But the government authorities had not said anything about an eruption … . The Volcanological Observatory, as we have always been told, has some of the most modern and sophisticated monitoring equipment which can predict an eruption to the minute. How come these machines have not said anything about an imminent eruption? Derol Ereman, a Boisen High School student from Matupit Island (quoted by Neumann, 1995, pp. 2–3). First Three Weeks Independence Day celebrations for the 19th national birthday of Papua New Guinea were interrupted by earthquake activity over the weekend in Rabaul beginning at 2.50–2.51 am on Sunday 18 September 1994. Two earthquakes about 40 seconds apart — one near Tavurvur the other near Vulcan — were felt strongly throughout the harbour area. Aftershocks and ground shaking continued, particularly in the Vulcan area. Rabaul Volcanological Observatory (RVO) volcanologists suspected, for about 12 hours, that the earthquake activity represented another ‘seismic swarm’, similar to many of those experienced in Rabaul during the 1970s and 1980s. The ground shaking continued and, by Sunday afternoon, villagers near Tavurvur on Matupit Island had begun a spontaneous evacuation into Rabaul town, encouraged by older people who recalled the 1937 volcanic eruption. Hundreds of other Matupits, however, remained on their threatened island.1 The number of people moving along the road grew, fed by other nearby communities, and by evening thousands of evacuees had gathered at oodlit Queen Elizabeth Park, an evacuation assembly point prescribed in the Rabaul Disaster Plan.

ISSN 1567-214x Keywords: Groundwater, Geomorphology, Remote Sensing, GIS, Conservation, Development ABSTRACT Technological advancement nowadays is very helpful with cost effective and time consuming techniques by incorporating GIS and Remote Sensing techniques to delineate groundwater potential map with wide-ranging tools used for the assessment of water resources, its management and conservation. This project is to outline the zonation of groundwater and produces a potential Groundwater map of East New Britain Province. The techniques used are Multi-Influencing Factor (MIF) and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) for the evaluation and assignment of ranks and weights on the different factors such as Lithology, Geomorphology, Soil, Slope, LU/LC, Rainfall, Lineaments & Drainage Density and Vegetation. After assigning each factors with its weightages and ranking individual factors depending on their influence on groundwater potential areas, it is then overlay in the GIS environment using Weighted Sum technique. From the overall results, the groundwater potential areas in the study area are classified into five (5) categories ranging from very good, good, moderate, poor and very poor.
