Who they are
The Nggem are an Indigenous people living in the central highlands of Papua, Indonesia. They live in mountain villages, supporting themselves through traditional farming in fertile valleys. They preserve their native language and communal customs inherited from their ancestors. Although most identify with the Christian faith, many still face the challenge of deepening their discipleship and fully integrating the gospel into their daily practices.
