Abstract / Content summary	The Participatory Slum Upgrading Programme (PSUP) is an accelerated and action-oriented urban assessment of needs and capacity-building gaps at the city level. The programme is supported by funds from the European Commission’s European Development Fund and it is currently being implemented in more than 20 African, Caribbean and Pacific countries. PSUP uses a structured approach where priority interventions are agreed upon through consultative processes. The PSUP methodology consists of three phases: (1) a rapid participatory urban profiling at national and local levels, focusing on Governance, Local Economic Development, Land, Gender, Environment, Slums and Shelter, Basic Urban Services, and Waste Management, and proposed interventions; (2) detailed priority proposals; and (3) project implementation. PSUP in Papua New Guinea encompasses a national profile, as well as profiles for Port Moresby, Kokopo and Goroka, each published as a separate report. This is the Papua New Guinea national report and it constitutes a general background, a synthesis of the eight themes; population and employment; housing, informal settlements and social issues; governance and institutions; environment and climate change; rural-urban linkages, transport and infrastructure; land availability; security, law and order; and gender and HIV/AIDS, and priority project proposals.
