From Houston to Sydney 2013

The Dani of

West Papua 2015

 
 

In late June 1989, I led a group of geographers on a Geographical Society study tour to one of the most remote and least developed areas of the world, the Baliem Valley in the Highlands of Indonesia’s Irian Jaya province (now known as the West Papua region).

In April 2015, I returned to the Baliem Valley to conduct field research for a book I was writing at the time.

This diary contains some observations and photos from this return trip.
