Between May and July 2022, the period of the
national general election, violence has escalated
in parts of the Highlands region. The presence
of security personnel in the conflict-affected
areas is limited, tensions remain high, and
outbreaks of new violence could continue at
least through the end of the August during the
period for challenging election results. While in
most areas, the violence is directly related to the
election, in some places it has resurfaced from
long-standing issues, including land disputes,
retribution, and unsettled disputes between
clans, who are using the instability around
elections to re-ignite fights.
The areas believed to have the greatest
humanitarian needs are Porgera, Laiagam, and
Kompiam districts in Enga province; Magarima
district in Hela province; and Nipa district in
Southern Highlands province.
Officials and partners have reported killings,
including of women and children; sexual
violence against women and girls; sorcery
accusation-related violence against women;
destruction of homes, schools, churches,
hospitals, businesses, and agricultural
warehouses; and violence and destruction of
homes and properties of communities and
churches hosting displaced persons.
