This project aims to investigate how traditional sign languages are used in Indigenous communities. Traditional sign languages are part of everyday life in Indigenous communities in central and northern Australia. The project aims to investigate how speech and sign are coordinated, the ways that new signs are added to traditional repertoires, and the ways that other forms of communication, such as drawing, are used together with sign. It is intended that the results of the study will assist Indigenous people in safeguarding their cultural heritage, and support cross-cultural communication in the education, health and legal sectors, and contribute to international debates about how sign languages of the world vary.

该项目旨在调查土著社区如何使用传统手语。传统手语是澳大利亚中部和北方土著社区日常生活的一部分。该项目旨在研究言语和符号是如何协调的，新的符号是如何添加到传统的剧目，以及其他形式的交流，如绘画，与符号一起使用的方式。这项研究的结果将有助于土著人民保护其文化遗产，支持教育、卫生和法律的部门的跨文化交流，并促进关于世界手语如何变化的国际辩论。
