The policy will enable regular Government funding, establishment of provincial women in agriculture hubs and better coordination of donor and private sector support.
President of the PNG Women in Agriculture, Maria Linibi, said the current Government support to women is not sufficient.
“The endorsement of the Women in Agriculture Policy will mean funding from the Government.”
Upon assuming office, Prime Minister James Marape announced that the Government will place more attention on agriculture.
Linibi says this is a good thing.
