Statement: Civil Society Priorities for Papua New Guinea’s Biodiversity Future ahead of C*D COP17

As Papua New Guinea prepares for C*D COP17, civil society organisations (CSOs) have a vital role in supporting the development and implementation of the National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan (NBSAP). From strengthening customary governance and biodiversity finance to promoting community-led monitoring, inclusion, and accountability, CSOs help bridge the gap between national commitments and on-the-ground action.

We together can ensure biodiversity conservation delivers lasting benefits for people, communities, and nature.

On 30 June 2026, 266 clan leaders from 41 villages in Papua New Guinea’s Torricelli Mountains officially signed the Tenkilemark deed, safeguarding 125,296 hectares of rainforest. This marks a significant milestone in community-led conservation efforts, representing one of the largest such commitments in Sandaun Province.

These forests, home to the Critically Endangered Tenkile and Weimang Tree Kangaroos, are among PNG’s most biodiverse hotspots.

This achievement celebrates 25 years of partnership between the Tenkile Conservation Alliance (TCA) and local communities, demonstrating how cultural stewardship and conservation leadership can ensure a sustainable future for both people and wildlife.

Since 2022, TCA has been a member of the Papua New Guinea Environment Alliance, working as a non-governmental alliance dedicated to saving lives in PNG, the lives of people, animals, and their places. For over 25 years, TCA has collaborated with communities in the Torricelli Mountains, Lumi district, on projects focused on community conservation and livelihoods.

Papua New Guinea civil society groups are raising concerns about the hastily organised Papua LNG Development Forum. They highlight issues such as insufficient notice for a significant extractive project, lack of transparency, and restricted access to vital information for landowners.

CELCOR and Jubilee Australia caution that without adequate preparation, independent guidance, and complete disclosure of project risks, the forum will not meet the standards of Free, Prior, Informed Consent (FPIC). Moreover, it could reinforce longstanding patterns of exclusion and disrespect toward affected communities.
