“I believe TIPNG is a respected voice within our communities as well as our region and also on a global stage. Our work is driven by a sense of purpose and made more urgent by the depth and scale of corruption impacting our Country. We remain committed to being a voice on issues of corruption and working with our partners to strengthen the integrity of systems in Papua New Guinea,” said TIPNG Chair, Peter Aitsi.

In the coming months, TIPNG will continue to advance a number of key priorities including generating awareness of the PNG Independent Commission Against Corruption, closely working with stakeholders to drive the reforms to secure and improve the conduct of our national general elections. And importantly building and supporting the role of the Community Coalition Against Corruption as a united voice on major national issues. TIPNG remains committed to its primary role and that is to empower citizens to act against corruption and reduce the current level of public apathy.
