About the assignment

The National Volunteer Service (NVS) is a government agency under the Ministry for Defence, NVS reports directly to the Minister responsible for this Ministry. The establishment of the National Volunteer Service Office (NVSO) was made through a political member’s bill in Parliament. The intention was to use trained, qualified and experienced people (Papua New Guineans) to provide the much needed expert services to people living in remote PNG. The idea is to create an avenue through which caring and kind hearted Papua New Guineans and foreigners alike could volunteer their expertise for others who are not so well off.

The National Volunteer Service celebrates its 30th years in Service this year with so much to show and tell in helping to develop community in the remotest parts of PNG. These stories tell of the successes and challenges faced by both the volunteers and the communities. The National Volunteer Service relies heavily on government support however its funding has been continuously slashed and further decreased due to the COVID19 Pandemic, therefore the organisation is seeking the assistance of a volunteer to assist with this assignment. NVS needs a strong electronic media platform and social media profile to enhance its volunteer placement in many more remote areas.
