Bougainville Healthy Communities Programme (BHCP)

Started in 2006, the BHCP is designed to encourage a community-based and owned primary health system. The programme has been established in five of the thirteen districts in Bougainville. The results to date have impressed the autonomous Bougainville government which has agreed to integrate the programme into the Bougainville health system and expand it to cover the other districts.

This programme is managed by The Leprosy Mission New Zealand on behalf of The Leprosy Mission International and a funded partnership with NZAID
