Workshop focuses on Aboriginal languages

Researchers, teachers and students passionate about preserving, promoting
and understanding Aboriginal languages met at a UQ-hosted conference
recently.

Held at the Moreton Bay Research Station on North Stradbroke Island last
month, the 11th Australian Languages Workshop was attended by approximately
50 participants.

The first day focused on revitalising Indigenous languages from eastern
Australia.

Stradbroke Island elder Aunty Margaret welcomed everyone and talked about
her new publication Jandai Language Dictionary 2011, which was produced by
the local Indigenous community on North Stradbroke Island to preserve their
language.
