Description
Grass Skirt Project is a powerful and transformative brand that aims to reshape narratives and eliminate gender-based violence through the transformative power of sport. In Papua New Guinea (PNG), where violence and sexual abuse against women and girls are alarmingly high, Grass Skirt Project is making a significant impact. Founded by former PNG & Australian tri-international athlete Tahina Booth and esteemed research scientist Dr.
Sofia Bartlett, this organization merges gender-inclusive sports programs with groundbreaking research initiatives. Their programs include the Hevea Cup & Wellness Expo, which focuses on promoting sports participation and educating communities about major health issues. Gymbox emphasizes physical and mental well-being, fosters leadership skills, and empowers individuals to create positive change.
The 10 Million Strong Leadership Program nurtures open communication, problem-solving, decision-making, and emotional intelligence, while reinforcing good behavior and providing opportunities for youth development. With sport as the platform, Grass Skirt Project breaks the silence, empowers survivors, challenges societal norms, and builds vital support networks. Together, through their programs, they combat gender-based violence, promote gender equity, address health issues, and build resilient and inclusive communities.
