Culture Week

Culture Week for city kids

The weeklong educational event, based on Papua New Guinea’s unique cultures, will be hosted at the Port Moresby Nature Park.

PNG is one of the most culturally diverse countries in the world with 852 known languages and tribes in the country.

Nature Park education program coordinator Ishimu Bebe told Loop PNG that the cultural program highlights how PNG’s unique cultures play a very important role in the different cultural societies.

Educator: Outdoor learning has advantage

Port Moresby Nature Park education program coordinator, Ishimu Bebe, says students who undergo their education environment programs during school excursions and the holidays have learnt a lot. 

Bebe says their education environment programs, like Kids for Conservation, World Wildlife Week and Culture Week, were developed specifically to help children learn about plants and animals.

The programs aim to inspire, educate and foster this learning and the appreciation of the native flora and fauna that PNG has.
