On 13 February 2026, Femili PNG delivered a Family and Sexual Violence (FSV) awareness session to Papua New Guinean workers preparing to take up employment opportunities in Australia and New Zealand.

The session was conducted as part of the Worker & Family Preparedness Program, led by WINGS Education in partnership with the Labour Mobility Unit of the National Department of Treasury, at the Dream Inn Hotel. It focused on case management services, processes for accessing support, and referral pathways available to survivors of FSV.

During the awareness, Communications Officer Pius Ronny and Operations Director Rose Walen highlighted Femili PNG’s broader work in strengthening service coordination, conducting community awareness, and providing training on trauma-informed care, child protection, and referral systems.

Participants expressed appreciation for the vital information shared, with several noting they had previously been unaware of the comprehensive support services available in PNG. Their feedback underscored the importance of awareness initiatives in strengthening protection and ensuring access to support for survivors.
