WSIS Prizes Contest 2023 Champion

Soundlines Podcast Channel Project


Description

Aboriginal language is an oral tradition, so it is logical and important for the MALTC to develop a podcast channel focusing on understanding Aboriginal Language.
The first series of eight episodes are hosted by the Awabakal Language Program language researchers and educators, interviewing respected, experienced Aboriginal language representatives from the state and nation. The project is in its early stage of planning - so keep visiting this page to follow our progress.

Funded in partnership with The Aboriginal Languages Trust (Department of Premier & Cabinet NSW)
