Jane Livesey from ICC and Liv Philpott who were very instrumental in making the program happen.He added that, choosing PNG to host the first one was a blessing and with that, there will be more programs like this after the Facilitators  do an evaluation of the inaugural event.“I would not hesitate to recommend the program for other women who are in leadership roles in sporting organisations, which can make a big difference in our communities.”
