Abstract
The NRL's Pacific Outreach Program is delivered via funding support from the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade Innovation funding, corporate support and the NRL. In Tonga the program is delivered as 'League for Life', which encapsulates the essence of the overarching aims and includes a focus on healthy nutrition and a healthy lifestyle. The program is a result of a comprehensive program design process, strategically formulated to contribute to development outcomes. Initially the program only existed in Papua New Guinea, however it has been extended into Tonga, Samoa, and Fiji. The program aims in each location are dependent on the unique contextual issues that are present and are tailored to foster relevant development outcomes.
