Description

When Melanie Munuggurr was named Australian Poetry Slam Champion in 2018 she was catapulted into the world of spoken word poetry, but for all the excitement the success came with challenges. Melanie reflects on her journey through the arts and why she wants arts festivals and institutions to provide more support for parents. 

We meet Professor Braden Hill, the Nyungar educator making waves proving that traditional academia and digital platforms can work hand-in-hand.

Plus for Word Up, Stuart Joel Nuggest shares the word for 'little boy' in Jingili.
