The AIATSIS Centre for Australian Languages (ACAL) is pleased to announce we are co-hosting the 2024 Australian Languages Workshop (ALW2024) with the Australian National University. The ALW is an annual opportunity for people working on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander languages (including both traditional and new varieties) to collaborate with their peers on their research and projects and discuss their achievements and challenges.
This year’s event will include presentations on theoretical and applied research or language projects relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander languages, including language documentation, maintenance and revitalisation, language teaching and learning, interpreting and translating. A workshop on issues relating to copyright and Indigenous Cultural and Intellectual Property in the production of dictionaries and learners’ guide will also be provided by the National Indigenous Australians Agency.
