Indigenous languages worldwide are in peril and Australia, once home to over 650 language groups, is losing important knowledge, culture and identity. But there’s hope – 2019 is the UN Year of Indigenous Languages. This session will look at current work being done to revive Indigenous languages in Queensland.

Indigenous Languages Revival features an amazing line-up of Des Crump, Rory O’Connor and Sandra Delaney moderated by Anita Heiss. To read more about their work and experiences, head to the Brisbane Writers Festival website.
