At otherDOTS, we stand at a pivotal moment—a turning point not just for us, but for generations to come. This is our call to action, our shared duty to transform the Pacific into a region where every person has the chance to dream, thrive, and build a future filled with promise.
Our footprints begin in Milne Bay, my home, where I’ve witnessed both the immense challenges our people face, but more so the incredible resilience they possess. Together, we’ve confronted barriers to education, limited opportunities, and systemic inequalities. Yet through these hardships, I’ve seen a steadfast belief in the power of collaboration and innovation to create lasting change.
Our work starts here and extends across Papua New Guinea—the Big Brother of the Pacific—and then beyond. It’s not just about addressing the struggles we’ve experienced firsthand; it’s about unleashing the untapped potential within our communities. With the right resources, visionary partnerships, and a commitment to act, we can break the cycle of hardship and build pathways toward progress.
At otherDOTS, we are building bridges to equitable opportunities through the power of technology with digital education to underserved communities, creating fair and sustainable trade systems, and empowering people to harness their culture and strength as tools for transformation. This is where the global stage meets the local heart—where partners who believe in our mission help us deliver real, lasting impact.
This is not just a project; it’s a promise to the next generation. To the children of Milne Bay, Papua New Guinea, and the Pacific: we see you, we hear you, and we are acting for you today. Together—with our communities, our allies, and our shared vision—we are building a legacy of resilience, opportunity, and hope.
It’s time to unite to transform our Region—one province, one community, and one shared dream at a time.
Let’s connect the dots and make every one of them count.
Sincerely,
Rhona , CEO
