Who they are

The Daga are an indigenous people who inhabit the mountain slopes of southeastern Papua New Guinea. Living in remote valleys that are difficult to reach, they maintain a strong attachment to the land and their clan traditions. Their own language expresses a rich communal culture as they balance a traditional subsistence way of life with the changes of the modern world.
