This project will make a contribution to Aboriginal language maintenance and documentation via lexicography. Only about 20 of the original 200 or so Aboriginal languages remain viable. Bininj Gunwok is one of these languages. Very few dictionaries exist for Australian languages and for those languages such as Bininj Gunwok which linguists class as 'non-Pama-Nyungan', only a handful of dictionaries are available. The resulting Bininj Gunwok dictionary and cultural encyclopaedia will have applications for education, Aboriginal health, community development, land management and environmental science in Kakadu National Park and western Arnhem Land as well as applications for cross-cultural communication.

该项目将通过词典编纂对土著语言的维护和文献工作作出贡献。原住民的200种语言中，只有20种左右仍然存在。Bininj Gunwok是这些语言之一。澳大利亚语言的词典很少，而对于那些语言学家归类为“非Pama-Nyungan”的Bininj Gunwok语言，只有少数词典可用。由此产生的Bininj Gunwok词典和文化百科全书将用于卡卡杜国家公园和阿纳姆地西部的教育、土著保健、社区发展、土地管理和环境科学，并用于跨文化交流。
