Pakistan

Unreached people groups

An overview of the country's people groups, focusing on those who still have little or no access to the gospel in their own language and culture.

Overview

Pakistan is among the countries with the highest concentration of unreached peoples on the planet. Of the 773 identified ethnic groups, the overwhelming majority live without any established Christian community in their own language and culture, including large peoples such as the Pashtuns, Sindhis, Saraikis and Baloch, who together number tens of millions of people. The country's historic Christian presence is small and concentrated in a few ethnic groups, leaving the vast majority of the population with virtually no access to the gospel.
