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' (LFL), 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 LFL program only existed in Papua New Guinea, however it has now become well established within Tonga, Samoa, and Fiji over recent years. The aim of this research project was to undertake a research evaluation of the League for Life program in Tonga to understand emerging outcomes, progress and challenges.
