John Allen Chau (Scottsboro (VS), 18 december 1991 – Andamanen (India), 17 november 2018) was een Amerikaanse evangelisch zendeling die in 2018 werd gedood door de bewoners van een geïsoleerd Indiaas eiland, Noord-Sentinel, bij een poging hen te bekeren tot het christendom. In november 2018 reisde John Allen Chau, 26 jaar oud, getraind en gestuurd door All Nations, een in de Verenigde Staten gevestigde christelijke missionaire organisatie, naar het ten oosten van India gelegen Noord-Sentineleiland. Zijn doel was contact te leggen met de Sentinelezen, een van de meest geïsoleerde stammen ter wereld en hen tot het christendom te bekeren. Chau ontbeerde echter een noodzakelijke vergunning of toestemming van de Indiase autoriteiten om het beschermde eiland te bezoeken. Lees meer op Wikipedia
