Port Moresby Nature Park has firmly positioned itself as a key player in the conservation of Papua New Guinea, striving to safeguard the nation’s rich biodiversity while inspiring thousands of tourists each year.
As PNG’s top recreational and educational facility, the park is not merely a green space—it is a living classroom and conservation centre. With over 150,000 visitors annually, including 30,000 students, the park provides outstanding opportunities for families, schools, and communities to connect with nature while learning about its worth in being conserved.
The efforts of the park go way beyond its confines. Through international projects such as the IUCN Centre for Species Survival: PNG, the park is playing a substantial role in the conservation of the globe, focusing on Papuan New Guinea’s indigenous and threatened flora and fauna. Its ability to breed wildlife like the Raggiana Bird of Paradise testifies to the professionalism and dedication of its employees towards the conservation of endangered species.
CEO Johnpaul Houston described the mission of the park hand in hand with education:
“Conservation is not only species protection, but inspiring people—especially the younger generation—to value and conserve their natural heritage.”
As PNG prepares to face climate and biodiversity challenges of the future, Port Moresby Nature Park continues to be an exemplary model of conservation, education, and pride in culture, showing that action in the local sphere equates to impact on the global scale.
