Who they are
The Itik are a small indigenous people living in the forests and river basins of northern Papua, Indonesia. With a communal life closely tied to the region’s land and rivers, they preserve their native language and traditional customs. Although most identify as Christians, there is a great need for in-depth discipleship and consistent biblical teaching in the language that speaks to the community’s heart.
