Ywam Medical Ships Australia & Papua New Guinea

YWAM Medical Ships Australia & Papua New Guinea (YWAM MS), a Christian charity, works in partnership with relevant national and provincial health authorities around a shared vision: healthy villages, and a healthy Papua New Guinea. The World Health Organisation defines health as being not simply the absence of disease but rather the presence of wellbeing. In line with this holistic approach, YWAM MS endorses the Healthy Islands Framework and works with communities to pursue the shared goal of healthy villages building a healthy nation. YWAM MS’ values are summarised into four main actions, to care, connect, serve and build.
