The project has trained and provided assistance to 78 rural communities on a community-driven development model and participatory project planning and implementation, and 85% of villages in the target wards were represented in ward development planning meetings organized through the project. With the ward development grants provided by the project, 73 wards are currently implementing community sub-projects to improve access to and the quality of basic services. Physical work of two of these subprojects (installation of solar lighting equipment) has been completed so far, directly benefitting 2,418 people, including 1,038 women. With the completion of remaining subprojects, the project is expected to benefit up to 65,479 people, including 28,470 women, mainly through the construction or rehabilitation of health posts, water supply systems, classrooms, and other small-scale community infrastructure. The Government of PNG is planning to scale-up the community-driven development model to additional provinces by 2021.
