approach.
We will achieve this through prioritiing the reopening of aid posts, getting funding to the clinics, fixing our drugs and medical supply challenges, and training more health workers. This will help to alleviate the strain on our hospital system which we will continue to invest in to ensure Papua New Guineans have access to the specialist care they need.
The National Department of Health plays a critical role in achieving this goal. The Department, under my guidance, provides leadership, advocacy and coordination for the health sector. This Corporate Plan outlines a roadmap for the Department of achieve its mission to improve and transform health services through innovative approaches supporting primary health care, health system development and good governance.
It provides a solid framework from which we can understand the major policy initiatives of the Department, including the implementation of the Health Sector Strategic Priorities 2016-2020, and the Government's commitments under the Alotau Accord.
Strong partnerships will be critical to achieving our goals. The Christian Health Services, Development Partners, and Private Providers are essential partners in delivering and strengthening health services. They enable PNG to leverage the limited resources we have, while bringing international and home grown expertise together to solve the many complex challenges we face.
The community remains at the centre of our daily focus. And we will continue to work hard in the pursuit of a high-quality health care system available to all people in our country.
