Living Languages
Supporting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in their efforts to preserve and grow their languages
Living Languages supports Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who are working to maintain, revitalise and reclaim their languages.
Training with Living Languages
Living Languages provides grassroots training to people, communities and Language Centres in Australia doing language work on the ground in remote, regional and urban areas.
We work with people who approach us for support and training, working with them to create tailored training programs and workshops that will best support their language work and goals - whether learning it, teaching it, working in a language centre, or just getting started.
Who we train with
We train with people who work in language-specified positions or who are working on their languages in their personal time, including individuals and small groups.
