Description

Language revitalisation has been a long and hard journey that continues to be impacted by the ongoing effects of colonisation. Policies such as the White Australia Act forbade First Nations Australians from speaking their languages. Dylan Collard strove to reclaim his connection to Noongar language, not only to deepen his own relationship to culture, but in order to keep the language of Noongar Country alive. Dylan started his language journey in 2017, and is now a fluent speaker and teacher.
