AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Cancer Care: Papua New Guinea Tamil Sanggam donated 10 wheelchairs and K30,000 worth of supplies to Port Moresby General Hospital’s children’s cancer ward, supporting young patients and their caregivers. Climate and Health: UNICEF warns that the coming El Niño could bring drought and water shortages to PNG, with risks including malnutrition and disease. In Western Province, low river levels are already disrupting food and fuel deliveries. Health System: Health leaders say PNG must use the remaining five years of its national health plan to address staff and medicine shortages, strengthen primary care and improve accountability. The country has about one doctor per 1,000 people, while TB, HIV, malaria, diabetes and heart disease remain major burdens. Early Detection: Health professionals are urging people to watch for subtle oral cancer warning signs, including persistent white patches, rough tissue and mouth tightness.
