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.

The University of Queensland is now supporting this work, through the Graduate Certificate in Indigenous Language Revitalisation, Indigenous Governance and Co-Design, Outreach and Community research.
