Empowering Students, One Lesson at a Time!
Meet Ms Faith Andambo – Headmistress of Jimi River Primary School in Papua New Guinea’s Jiwaka Province. Through the Accounting and Basic Bookkeeping course offered under the Pacific Partnership for Open, Distance, and Flexible Learning, with support from the Commonwealth of Learning @COL4D and funding from the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs & Trade @MFATNZ, Faith gained more than just skills.
With training delivered by AWEST Pacific Community Leadership Training Institute, she’s now strengthening her school’s financial practices and empowering her students.
“Our students grow peanuts and coffee – their income-generating crops. With the financial skills I’ve learned, I can now guide them to manage money better,” Faith shared. The school is even working to open student bank accounts with the Bank of South Pacific to promote early saving habits.
Faith’s story shows how investing in educators leads to community-wide impact through financial literacy.
