Kaurna Language Revival

The Kaurna Language Revival is a community effort to restore and promote the traditional language of the Kaurna people, the Indigenous group from South Australia. After nearly being lost, the language is being relearned and taught through recordings, historical documents, and collaboration with linguistic experts. The initiative aims to reconnect Kaurna people with their cultural heritage, strengthen identity, and ensure the language’s survival for future generations. This revival reflects a broader movement to preserve Indigenous languages worldwide, recognizing their importance in cultural expression and history.
