empower communities in the preservation and promotion of Indigenous languages
About Us
Welcome
to Gilaywara Maeingoongea
Where our core mission is to empower communities in the preservation and promotion of Indigenous languages. Proudly supported by the Department of Communications and the Arts, we have established a dynamic platform that serves as a nexus for contributors to share their cultural treasures while retaining control over their linguistic heritage.
At the heart of our initiative is a collective endeavor hosted by REDI.E, representing a commitment to fostering language revival and preservation. We recognise the intrinsic value of Indigenous languages as repositories of cultural identity, wisdom, and resilience. Our collaborative platform not only provides a space for communities to showcase their linguistic richness but also ensures that they actively steer the narrative, maintaining autonomy in the representation and preservation of their linguistic and cultural legacies.

One of our significant collaborations is the innovative initiative working with “Kinephonics.” In partnership with local Health and Early Childhood providers, this project is designed to extend crucial services to regional communities, with a particular focus on a welcoming induction for underlying language issues.
By working hand-in-hand with speech professionals, we aim to address linguistic challenges at an early stage, contributing to the broader goal of closing the gap in these communities. Kinephonics embodies our dedication to practical, community-focused projects that make a tangible difference in the lives of individuals, fostering language awareness and strengthening cultural bonds.
