    9 Maam ngawaala: biindu ngaawa nyanggan bindaayili. Language centres: keeping language strong Anna Ash, Pauline Hooler, Gary Williams and Ken Walker1 Abstract We begin by describing the history and main activities of Muurrbay Aboriginal Language and Culture Co-operative and Many Rivers Aboriginal Language Centre. Comments from Elders, language teachers and researchers are included to reflect the opinions of a diverse range of Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people. We discuss some aspects of research, publishing, language education and information technology. Finally we make some recommendations for groups who are just starting out on this challenging but rewarding road. This volume was at least partially inspired by The green book of language revitalization in practice. There is a chapter in that book called ‘Diversity in Local Language Maintenance and Restoration: A Reason for Optimism’. It emphasises that there is a positive future for the revitalisation of Aboriginal languages: There is reason for optimism because local language communities all over the world are taking it upon themselves to act on behalf of their imperilled linguistic traditions in full understanding of, and in spite of, the realistic perception that the cards are stacked against them. There is, in effect an international movement in which local communities work in defiance of the forces pitted against their embattled languages. It has something of the character of a modern miracle, if you think about it – while they share the goal of promoting a local language, these groups are essentially independent of one another, coming together sometimes to compare notes, but operating in effective separation. Two factors in our optimism are the very existence of the movement itself and what is sometimes decried as a flaw in the movement: the feature of 1 All authors are from the Muurrbay Aboriginal Language and Culture Co-operative & Many Rivers Aboriginal Language Centre.

    25 English influence on the pronunciation of re-awakened Aboriginal languages Nicholas Reid1 Abstract This chapter explores the influence of literacy and teaching, by first language speakers of English, on the pronunciation of Aboriginal languages in the context of language re-awakening in New South Wales (NSW). Wherever languages are learned in the absence of a generation of first language speakers we find that the learners’ first language will have a major impact – the linguistic resources that you have to build on play a strong role in shaping the new language that you acquire. This paper canvasses some pronunciation changes currently taking place in NSW in the context of learning revitalised languages. It raises the need for open discussion about the authenticity of re-created languages and argues that, for re-created languages, phonemic orthographies might not be the best choice. While this paper focuses on New South Wales its arguments may be relevant to other parts of the country where re-creation-type programs are underway. What is being learned in revitalisation programs Language re-awakening work undertaken in NSW typically involves learners whose first language is Australian English (from standard to Aboriginal English varieties) engaged in the learning of Aboriginal languages. The input that learners receive is generally either written language in the form of wordlists, learner guides or other pedagogical materials, or spoken language samples modeled by someone else who also learned pronunciation from written sources. In some lucky cases there are still Elders with enough speaking knowledge to record words as pronunciation guides, however the usual scenario involves careful decision-making about how words should be pronounced and sentences constructed, under two serious restrictions: the absence 1 School of Behavioural, Cognitive & Social Science, University of New England.

  • You Can't Say That!
    You can’t say that! HINTS AND TIPS Artwork: ‘Rhythm of Knowledge’ Josie is from the Gumbaynggirr Nation (the mid-North Coast of NSW). The artwork tells the story of Josie’s interpretation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students traversing higher education in both undergraduate and postgraduate University degrees. The artwork portrays a symbolic design featuring a Southern Cross Star cluster and a metaphoric ancient body of knowledge travelling across the sky as well as the difficulties and challenges that First Nations people experience within a Western academic institution. However, the artwork is also about triumph and success, as small magical ancestors watch from the universe and cast protection and strength into the students’ academic pathways, providing holistic wellbeing. Context The University of Wollongong (UOW) main campus sits in an area of stunning natural beauty that is the ancestral home of the Australian Aboriginal people of Yuin. Yuin is a substantial stretch of the New South Wales (NSW) South Coast and inland regions, spanning from Sydney’s Broken Bay in the north all the way to the Victorian border in the south. The two major mountains overlooking the Wollongong region, Mount Keira and Mount Kembla, are spiritually significant to local Aboriginal people, representing the protection and constancy of Grandmother and Grandfather, respectively. The three major totems or spiritual guides of this region are the sea eagle of the air, the humpback whale of the ocean and the red-bellied black snake of the land. The majority of the other domestic campuses of UOW (not including Southern Highlands and Liverpool) also sit on Yuin country.

We represent our members, the Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Services (ACCHS) that deliver culturally appropriate comprehensive primary health care to their communities. Aboriginal Community Control has its origins in Aboriginal people’s right to self-determination. This is the right to be involved in health service delivery and decision-making according to protocols or procedures determined by Aboriginal communities based on the Aboriginal definition of health: “Aboriginal health means not just the physical well-being of an individual but…the social, emotional and cultural wellbeing of the whole Community in which each individual is able to achieve their full potential as a human being thereby bringing about the total well-being of their Community. It is a whole of life view and includes the cyclical concept of life-death-life.”(National Aboriginal Health Strategy, 1989) The AH&MRC is governed by a Board of Directors who are Aboriginal people elected by our members on a regional basis. We represent, support and advocate for our members and their communities on Aboriginal health at state and national levels.
