Papua New Guinea

Last updated: 3/5/2020

Papua New Guinea, in the southwestern Pacific, encompasses the eastern half of New Guinea and its offshore islands. A country of immense cultural and biological diversity, it’s known for its beaches and coral reefs. Inland are active volcanoes, granite Mt. Wilhelm, dense rainforest and hiking routes like the Kokoda Trail. There are also traditional tribal villages, many with their own languages. Twelve percent of the known language groups on the planet reside in the remote, mountainous terrain of PNG. Papua New Guinea has more languages than any other country, and has one of the greatest densities of languages on the earth. Thank you for your interest in furthering the advancement of Bible translation in PNG, your support and prayers.
