Community

Helping Remote Communities Develop and Thrive

Each Bush Angels paramedic unit includes a community worker who works with community leaders to identify needs and develop projects to help these communities thrive. An example of our community projects is our sewing workshops to help village women clothe their family or run a small sewing business. We have also run workshops to keep remote communities safe from pandemics through education on HIV-AIDS and COVID-19. Depending on the need these projects might focus on developing clean water systems, boosting educational opportunities for school children in the bush, or assisting a village to recover from a natural disaster such as an earthquake or landslide. We are looking into the viability of mobile phone repair huts to provide young unemployed people with a livelihood. Mustard Seed Global also provides leadership training to empower the churches which provide much of the support structure undergirding most rural and remote areas in Papua New Guinea.
