Abstract

This case study is Phase 2 of a sequential mixed-methods analysis undertaken by the Global Tracer Facility (GTF) into the longterm impact of the Australia Awards Women Leading and Influencing (WLI) enrichment program on developmental leadership in the Pacific. It builds upon findings from a social network analysis (SNA) conducted in Phase 1, which examined connections between WLI alumni from Cohorts 1–3 (2017 to 2019) of the WLI Leadership and Mentoring Program. For Phase 2 of this research approach, the GTF worked closely with locally based researchers in Papua New Guinea (PNG) and Fiji to conduct in-depth interviews of five nominated key network members identified in Phase 1 to capture rich contextual insights into women’s leadership in PNG and Fiji.
