  • Third Enga Development Forum, Wabag Address by HE Bruce Davis Australian High Commissioner to Papua New Guinea “Security and D
    Third Enga Development Forum, Wabag Address by HE Bruce Davis Australian High Commissioner to Papua New Guinea “Security and Development - Charting the way for Enga” 11 December 2017 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Sir Peter Ipatas, Governor, Enga Province Attorney General Minister for Police Minister for Civil Aviation Member for Wabag MAJGEN Jerry Singirok (Rtd) It is with great pleasure that I am here today with you at the third Enga Development Forum Conference. A particular thank you to the Governor for the invitation – it is always easy to come back. Such conferences are useful ways to bring together leaders and the community to discuss issues of importance to you all. And, importantly, to take action collectively to find ways to advance public policy and development. This year’s theme of ‘The price of democracy in Enga and the nation – dissecting the post national election ‘crisis’ and charting a way forward for Enga’ is both fitting and timely. Looking back is a useful starting point when it comes to making plans for the future. Looking back helps us to draw lessons and learn from the experiences of a wide range of people. Doing so gives us the best chance to improve and create excellent solutions to the challenges facing us. Page 1 of 15 Experience brings wisdom. This wisdom – which I see plenty of here today – is critical in underpinning and guiding the work to developing plans and policies for the future. I am honoured to be with such an esteemed group of Engans and national leaders to offer my thoughts on the recent elections, its aftermath, and offer some observations as you look to strengthen democracy and to chart a way forward for this terrific province.

  • Seacology Mission: Described As “Arks of Biodiversity,” the World's
    Seacology Mission: Described as “arks of biodiversity,” the world’s islands harbor vastly more endangered species than any other region on earth. The United Nations declared 2010 the International Year of Biodiversity, bringing the critical mission of species preservation to the forefront of the global environmental movement. Seacology is an international organization working exclusively on islands for benefit of island peoples and biodiversity. Island environments provide homes and livelihoods for fully one tenth of the world’s population, including many developing nations and indigenous communities struggling to make simple gains in their quality of life. Seacology’s intimate collaboration with islanders is the most effective way to rescue these vanishing cultures, wildlife, and habitats. Our funds go directly to island communities and local organizations, using a grassroots, win-win approach that tackles environmental problems at their core. Seacology believes conservation and humanitarian aid are indelibly linked. We work with island communities to establish nature reserves while supporting basic needs such as renovations to schools, provision of medical supplies, or construction of fresh water systems. Our projects defend species and ecosystems, uplift island communities, promote locally based conservation, and foster long- term environmental stewardship. The United Nations identifies three critical pillars for maintaining biodiversity and sustaining communities: conservation, sustainable development, and fair use of resources. Seacology fulfills these objectives and more with our innovative island projects, which resonate deeply with all who encounter our mission. Our efforts grow in geographic range, scope, and importance each year as island villages grapple with ever increasing hardships while watching their wildernesses dwindle, their species disappear, and their resources ebb.
