What happens when a Grade 10 student in Manus has no job to go to?
They go home. To remote communities with overstretched health workers, limited services — and no roles waiting for them. No purpose. No place. Just a return to nothing.
That’s the real problem. But what if they went home equipped?
Wantaim PNG saw this challenge and built a response — a First Aid Training
Programme for Grade 10 students that turns a dead end into a lifeline.
Not just for them. For their entire community.
125 students trained. Certificates on the way. And two youths from our very first cohort? They used their training to land formal jobs.
This programme doesn’t just teach first aid. It restores pride. Builds confidence. Creates purpose. It gives young people a role in their community — and a reason to stand tall.

Because every young person deserves to go home with something to offer — not just a sense of defeat.
This is grassroots investment in PNG’s next generation.
