Group gets award
The National, Monday February 29th, 2016
Representatives for the winner for the Prime Minister’s 2015 Excellence Award, Domil Integrated Community Health and Development Cooperative Society, attended the United Nations Development Programme workshop in Port Moresby last week.
Domil is located in Jiwaka.
The aim of the workshop was to highlight Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and the experience of pilot project communities.
“Previously, we just looked after pigs and chickens for our daily consumption, now we are rearing them to generate our income,” Domil Integrated Community Health and Development Cooperative Society’s project manager operations Jackson Billgun said.
The group displayed the Prime Minister’s 2015 Excellence Award among their other products.
“The awarded was given to the group under the 2015 Sub-National Level Organisation Award for tackling poverty and improving education, health and wellbeing, strong and sustainable communities.”
