Background

The APSP is an enabling mechanism comprised of three separately designed programs each with its own outcomes, theory of change, operational approach and separate monitoring and evaluation systems. Managed under a single contract, this approach is aimed to ensure and drive value for money by realising back office efficiencies, ensure gender is consistently at the forefront of each program and deliver opportunities for learning and adaptation between programs.

The total value of the Framework is up to $200 million over four years, with the possibility of a four-year extension.

For further information on the Australian development program in PNG, see Australia's development partnership with Papua New Guinea, and Australian assistance to the Autonomous Region of Bougainville.
