The largest of the Pacific Island countries, Papua New Guinea has a population of over 10 million (World Bank, 2022) but is still considered a small state of the Commonwealth.
COL’s current work in Papua New Guinea is in the areas of skills for work, GIRLS Inspire, technology-enabled learning and tertiary education through the Virtual University for Small States of the Commonwealth (VUSSC) network. Learners from Papua New Guinea are also participating in COL’s free, open online courses and benefitting from other available resources.
