The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Mount Hagen is a Metropolitan Archdiocese in Papua New Guinea. It is responsible for the suffragan dioceses of Goroka, Kundiawa, Mendi and Wabag.

Their work includes edit

One of the issues is Witch-hunts in Papua New Guinea. Douglas Young, the archbishop of Mount Hagen since 2006,[1] has corroborated one suggested motive. He has said that when young Papua New Guinean men (70-90% of whom are unemployed) see women take on traditionally male roles, they wish to reassert their power and retaliate, leading to witch-hunts and acts of violence against female community members.[2][3]
