Who they are
The Berik are an Indigenous people who live along the banks of the Tor River in Papua province, eastern Indonesia. They live in villages surrounded by dense tropical rainforest, preserving ancestral customs and a language of their own. Although many profess the Christian faith, the community seeks to deepen its spiritual roots while facing geographical isolation and social changes in the region.
