圣经获取清单：研究
评估全球圣经访问和短缺的综合框架
Introduction
The Bible Access List (BAL) identifies where access to the Bible is most difficult and where shortages among Christians are greatest.
Developed by the Bible Access Initiative, a collaborative of Bible agencies, it provides a structured, data-informed framework to support strategic planning, distribution, and advocacy for Bible accessibility and addressing Bible shortages.
指导原则
向所有人开放
无论宗教信仰如何，每个人都应该能够访问和拥有圣经（如果他们愿意）。
自由访问
不应该有阻碍或复杂化圣经访问的法律或社会经济障碍。
任何数量的访问
教会、圣经机构和宣教组织应该能够获得任何必要数量的圣经。
What we Measure
核心评估
- 圣经限制清单: 一个排名分数，确定哪里的圣经访问最困难
- 圣经短缺清单: 一个排名概览，显示最多基督徒缺乏圣经的地方
- 国家概况: 圣经访问现实和祈祷需求的叙述和视觉摘要
Scope and Coverage
2026 Edition
- 106
- countries assessed
- 87
- countries ranked on the Restrictions List (BRL)
- 81
- countries ranked on the Shortage List (BSL)
Countries are included in the BRL when they obtain 20 points or more across the Bible Restrictions indicators. These indicators measure both restrictions imposed by governments, religious extremists, or other actors (Block 1), and socio-economic barriers that limit Bible access (Block 2). In addition, countries with more than 10 points for Block 2 indicators alone are also ranked, recognizing that severe socio-economic barriers can significantly restrict Bible access even where legal or societal restrictions are relatively limited.
Countries are included in the BSL where sufficient survey data, supporting evidence, and expert validation provide adequate confidence in the estimate of need.
Where available information is insufficient, inconsistent, or inconclusive, results may be withheld until further research is completed.
How it works
Factors Considered
The Bible Restrictions List assesses each country on 11 indicators organized in two blocks.
区块1：强加限制（75%权重）
由政府、宗教极端分子或其他行为者施加的限制：
- 自由进口任何数量圣经的能力
- 自由印刷任何数量圣经的能力
- 自由储存任何数量圣经的能力
- 自由拥有任何数量圣经的能力
- 自由分发任何数量圣经的能力
- 安全地在互联网上访问圣经的能力
区块2：社会经济因素（25%权重）
间接限制访问的更广泛的社会经济条件：
- 贫困
- 缺乏互联网接入
- 缺乏电力接入
- 低识字水平
- 限制分发的基础设施不良
Block 1 restrictions are given more weight because they are harder to change and often put believers at personal risk. Socio-economic barriers are serious but can often be mitigated with resources.
Data and Validation
The BAL integrates multiple primary and secondary data sources. No single source determines a country's score or Bible Shortage estimate. Instead, information is triangulated across BAL surveys, expert interviews, field observations, established international datasets, and other supporting evidence.
主要数据
- BAL调查: 分发给100多个国家的受访者，翻译成6种语言
- 专家访谈: 与特定国家专家的深入访谈
- 实地观察: 对选定国家或地区的现场访问
- 合理性审查: 与合作伙伴组织和国家专家的咨询
次要数据
- 世界基督教数据库: 人口、宗教和教派数据
- World Watch List Survey: Persecution data and country analysis.
- 世界银行指标: 收入水平、互联网使用、识字率、物流绩效指数
Key Definitions
圣经访问
通过各种方式获得或阅读圣经的能力，如实体副本、数字格式，或在公共/社区场所（如教堂或图书馆）或家庭环境中的可用性。
圣经拥有权
个人拥有圣经。所有权意味着个人访问和选择，可能受到可用性或法律限制的影响。
圣经短缺
估计希望但没有个人圣经的基督徒数量。使用调查数据、人口统计建模和专家审查计算。
