Indigenous Language Revitalisation Program

Hundreds of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Languages are spoken in Australia. Each is connected to Country and is a unique expression of knowledge and culture, practiced and transmitted by Communities of speakers, singers and signers over thousands of generations.

First Nations people throughout Australia have long shown their commitment to keeping their Languages strong, through Language revival, revitalisation and maintenance movements. Hear from our students about this important work.

The University of Queensland and our program staff Des Crump and Samantha Disbray  are proud to collaborate with language activists on the Graduate Certificate in Indigenous Language Revitalisation (GCILR), Outreach and On-Country Learning with Indigenous Governance and Co-Design.
