Request for Statements of Interest for Papua New Guinea: DRL invites organizations to submit statements of interest outlining program concepts and capacity to manage programs that seek to strengthen citizen's access to justice in order to combat violence, including violence against women, human rights abuses, and corruption associated with the extractive industries in Papua New Guinea (PNG). If possible, programs should address these issues in the context of PNG's complex interethnic property ownership and land tenure issues. Program activities may include, but are not limited to, activities to raise awareness about relevant rights and laws; provide access to legal services; build the capacity of organizations supporting or advocating for legal rights; work with relevant local and national law enforcement agencies to raise their awareness; and/or educate the community on human rights concerns within the extractive industry. Successful programs will coordinate with other donor efforts in this area.
