A Worrorran patriach, he is a key knowledge holder, spiritual leader and respected elder of the West Kimberley.

To work in partnership with the diverse Kimberley language communities To ensure Kimberley languages are passed on to children. The KLRC is the only organisation in Australia focussing solely on Kimberley Aboriginal languages. The Kimberley was, and still is, the one of the most linguistically diverse areas in Australia with at least 421 language groups plus additional dialects identified. The KLRC Directors advocate for the 30 or so languages still spoken. The organisation was established in 1984 by Aboriginal people concerned about the effects of colonisation and the continuing impact of Western society on their spoken languages and cultural knowledge. It is beginning its 26th year of operations with a wealth of experience and resources underpinning its service delivery. The organisation is governed by a Board of 12 Directors accountable to a membership from across the region. The office is based in Halls Creek in the East Kimberley. The KLRC provides a forum for developing language policy to strategically revive and maintain (in other words, continue) the Kimberley Aboriginal languages.

  • Noun Phrase Constituency in Australian Languages: a Typological Study
    Linguistic Typology 2016; 20(1): 25–80 Dana Louagie and Jean-Christophe Verstraete Noun phrase constituency in Australian languages: A typological study DOI 10.1515/lingty-2016-0002 Received July 14, 2015; revised December 17, 2015 Abstract: This article examines whether Australian languages generally lack clear noun phrase structures, as has sometimes been argued in the literature. We break up the notion of NP constituency into a set of concrete typological parameters, and analyse these across a sample of 100 languages, representing a significant portion of diversity on the Australian continent. We show that there is little evidence to support general ideas about the absence of NP structures, and we argue that it makes more sense to typologize languages on the basis of where and how they allow “classic” NP construal, and how this fits into the broader range of construals in the nominal domain. Keywords: Australian languages, constituency, discontinuous constituents, non- configurationality, noun phrase, phrase-marking, phrasehood, syntax, word- marking, word order 1 Introduction It has often been argued that Australian languages show unusual syntactic flexibility in the nominal domain, and may even lack clear noun phrase struc- tures altogether – e. g., in Blake (1983), Heath (1986), Harvey (2001: 112), Evans (2003a: 227–233), Campbell (2006: 57); see also McGregor (1997: 84), Cutfield (2011: 46–50), Nordlinger (2014: 237–241) for overviews and more general dis- cussion of claims to this effect. This idea is based mainly on features

In this paper I use evidence from place names, cultural ties, language names, mythology, and oral histories to discuss the locations and affiliations of several contested groups in the area. Of particular interest are the Mayala and Oowini groups. In doing this work I build on techniques exemplified and refined by Luise Hercus in her beautiful studies of Central Australian language, land, and culture.

  • FESA Indigenous Translation Project Consultancy Report
    Kimberley Language Resource Centre Indigenous Translation of Western Australian Emergency Management Guidelines and the Emergency Management Arrangements November 2008 1 Executive Summary The Indigenous Translation of Western Australian Emergency Management Guidelines and the Emergency Management Arrangements Project was a partnership between the Fire and Emergency Services Authority (FESA) and the Kimberley Language Resource Centre (KLRC) to promote the participation of Indigenous people in emergency management decision making by improving the accessibility and relevance of key emergency management literature. Commencing in 2006 and funded by a Working together to Manage Emergencies (WTTME) grant, the project initially sought to translate two existing documents into language and content suitable for remote Indigenous communities. As the project unfolded, it became apparent that translation of the complex written emergency management doctrine per se was not going to achieve the desired outcomes. This was principally due to the: Cultural and linguistic diversity between Indigenous peoples; Australian Indigenous cultures are oral cultures. In the Kimberley Aboriginal people do not rely heavily on structured written compositions as the primary means of communicating information; Varying levels of English literacy in Indigenous communities; Relative density of emergency management literature; Complexity of the State emergency management policy and arrangements; Level of Indigenous community knowledge about the respective roles of key

  • Developing Indigenous Holistic Approaches to Cultural Heritage Assessment and Interpretation
    Coolabah, No. 24&25, 2018, ISSN 1988-5946, Observatori: Centre d’Estudis Australians i Transnacionals / Observatory: Australian and Transnational Studies Centre, Universitat de Barcelona Searching for the in-between: Developing Indigenous holistic approaches to cultural heritage assessment and interpretation Sarah Yu Nyamba Buru Yawuru [email protected] Copyright©2018 Sarah Yu. This text may be archived and redistributed both in electronic form and in hard copy, provided that the author and journal are properly cited and no fee is charged, in accordance with our Creative Commons Licence. Abstract: Writing about heritage values is tricky business where Aboriginal cultural heritage is concerned. How might Aboriginal worldviews, cosmologies and epistemologies be incorporated into a discussion and assessment of heritage values that have been defined and codified according to standards originating from the need to protect mostly European built heritage? In this paper, Sarah Yu revisits her cultural heritage work with the Yawuru native title holders of the area of country in and around Broome, Western Australia, to consider and challenge static notions of heritage (for example, as articulated in the Burra Charter) that relegate heritage into artificial dichotomies such as natural/cultural, or tangible /intangible, or scientific/Aboriginal. Her approach is developed from Yawuru perspectives and worldviews that are holistic, founded in the Bugarrigarra (the Dreaming) and which acknowledge the traditional knowledge, rights and cultural responsibilities that people have in relation to looking after their country as a whole, rather than as separated values, as well as shared transcultural values that have emerged from the colonial history of the region. Yu draws from her recent heritage work in cultural management planning (Yawuru Cultural Management Plan) as well as the curation of a heritage trail (Jetty to Jetty Trail) and an exhibition about pearling in Australia (Lustre: Pearling & Australia).
