The PNG Hour of Hope

New radio, TV program for COVID-19 awareness

The program’s development was supported by the Papua New Guinea-Australia Partnership with collaboration from the Word Health Organisation.

During this time of a global health crisis when many people feel uncertain and isolated, Church leaders have teamed up with medical experts to provide pastoral support and accurate public health information.

The program covers protective health and hygiene practices – vital in slowing the spread of the coronavirus – and seeks to answer frequently asked questions and counter the spread of rumour, myths and misinformation.
