Who they are

The Kairi are an indigenous community living in the forests and river basins of Papua New Guinea. Also known for speaking Rumu, they maintain a way of life deeply connected to the land and the community ties within their villages. Although most profess the Christian faith, they face the common challenges of geographical isolation and the ongoing pursuit of spiritual maturity.
