Abstract
Strengthening Women’s Research Capacity in PNG program is a multi-million-dollar initiative that aims to enhance the research skills of women in PNG, foster professional networks and build long-term mentoring capacity, leading to better career outcomes for local women.
The program, funded by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), is led by CID co-directors Professor Sefa Awaworyi Churchill and Professor Simon Feeny and alongside Professor Janet Roitman, Associate Professor Ankita Mishra and Dr Preety Srivastava.
The program’s central goals will be to build sustainable professional and mentoring networks among female researchers, and participants will have the opportunity to further develop their skills through advanced academic training, mentorship, and collaboration with leading experts at RMIT University and partner institutions.
