- Summary:
-
Australia's role in peace-building in the Commonwealth is nowhere more evident than on the island of Bougainville, just hours from north-east Australia off Papua New Guinea's east coast. Bougainville faces huge challenges after 10 years of civil war, but this did not dampen the joyous celebrations last month in Arawa at the signing of the Bougainville Peace Agreement.
