Welcome Message from David Stewart, Country Director-Grow PNG

David StewartCountry Director, Grow PNG Limited

Globally, we’ve seen increased attention on the impact of climate change upon smallholder farmers – the backbone of our food systems.  Grow PNG’s long-term vision is to harness the skills and expertise of diverse stakeholders in PNG who are committed to establishing a sustainable, and commercially vibrant agricultural growth corridor in the Markham and Ramu Valley. One that drives increased incomes, climate resilience, and adaptation of smallholder farmer households. At Grow PNG we are committed to strengthening an inclusive and enabling environment for these vital small businesses and improving equitable access to knowledge, technology, finance, and markets.​ Under the guidance of Grow Asia, the World Economic Forum, the Australian Government, and members of our esteemed Advisory Council, Grow PNG has succeeded in creating a multi-stakeholder platform that brokers market-driven solutions connecting agribusinesses and smallholder value chains. ​Going forward, we are building on the success of the partnerships established, as together we strengthen opportunities for sustainable, private sector-led commercial investments in the Markham-Ramu Corridor. Our role is to convene, facilitate, and scale efforts to promote more resilient, inclusive, and sustainable food systems in Papua New Guinea, with the vision of creating more inclusive value chains and enabling smallholder farmers to increase their income by 20%.​ This is a time of immense opportunities in Morobe Province and Papua New Guinea at large. We look forward to working with Grow PNG partners, donors, Grow Asia, and all our stakeholders  to achieve these goals.​
