Our Vision

To see God glorified through an abundance of Christ followers within every people group.

Our Mission

Joshua Project highlights peoples and places with the least access or response to the gospel so the Body of Christ can prioritize its prayer and mission efforts.

How does Joshua Project bring definition?

Developed and continually updated a comprehensive list of approximately 17,400 ethnic people groups.

Specific focus on the 7,400 unreached people groups which have less than 2% Evangelical and less than 5% Christian adherents.

Joshua Project provides the most extensive collection of unreached people group information available today.

What are Unreached People Groups?


People groups = Nations (ethne in Greek). A group of individuals with a common sense of history, language, beliefs, and identity.

Unreached: “a people group among which there is no indigenous community of believing Christians with adequate numbers and resources to evangelize this people group without outside assistance."
