Who they are
The Bariji are a small Indigenous community who inhabit the forests and valleys of Papua New Guinea. With a rich cultural heritage tied to the land and rivers, they preserve their native language in everyday interactions and community life. Although Christianity is part of their recent history, the people seek to strengthen their identity and deepen their understanding of the faith within their own cultural context.
