Problem statement and Research Question
Problem Statement Remote non-resource rich communities in Papua New
Guinea often suffer huge disparities in human development indicators and economic empowerment opportunities compared to other parts of Papua New Guinea. These are the target areas of a small number of INGOs. Strong and reliable partnerships of these INGOs with government can enable greater development outcomes for such disadvantaged communities.
Research Question How can strong partnerships between government and
INGOs be forged to enable improved service delivery and development outcomes for the remote non-resource rich areas that NGOs can target?

Key Advantages
Development NGOs have a niche in the social aspects
of development and bring that to the partnership
INGOs are a neutral partner in development thus can
facilitate equitable development

Key Challenges and Risks
INGOs often have short time span of projects and cannot work beyond the funding period
INGOs usually do not undertake medium to large scale infrastructure projects which the government oftentimes prioritises
Pressures on INGOs to meet deadlines and go ahead without meaningful government contributions have the potential to undermine the effectiveness of partnerships.
Partnership coordination by GoPNG tends to be lacking

Key Success Enablers
Partnerships arrangements are better recognised with formal agreements and monitoring of responsibilities
Willingness of political, administrative, and service delivery arms of government to partner with and meaningfully engage with INGOs
Regular dialogue, engagement, and reporting from INGOs to Government

Conclusion
GoPNG – INGO partnerships can be in the form of: counter-part funding; joint implementation of activities; technical assistance; jointly doing project design, planning, and monitoring and evaluation of projects; and INGOs managing GoPNG funding for project implementation.
Partnerships can be formalised through MoUs

Recommendation
Among other stakeholders, the
Government of PNG would benefit from
proactively seeking to develop strategic
partnerships with development INGOs
