Netball PNG Chair, Julienne Leka said this is the first time that netball is supported at this level by a large corporate organisation in the extractive industry.
Newcrest Government Relations Manager, Stanley Komunt, said Newcrest has a vision to contribute to PNG development programs across the country, and not just in communities within its operations.
Newcrest was supporting Netball PNG to foster women’s empowerment, respectful relationships, healthy living, and strong leadership.
