Restoring on-Country performance: song, language and south coast landscapes

该项目旨在调查西澳大利亚州南海岸地区地方、人和濒危表演传统之间的关系。它将首次将有关档案歌曲和语言材料、景观生态读物和土著社区专业知识的工作结合在一起，以扩展和加强对极度濒危的宁夏歌谣的了解。预期成果包括提高社区发展、维持和分享以地方为基础的表演剧目的能力，以及培养社会凝聚力、加强与国家的联系和帮助重新诠释景观的潜力。这应有利于土著人民的福祉、对环境的理解和和解进程。

This project aims to investigate relationships between place, people and endangered performance traditions in the south coast region of Western Australia. For the first time, it will bring together work on archival song and language material, ecological readings of landscape and Indigenous community expertise to extend and enhance knowledge of critically endangered Nyungar songlines. Expected outcomes include increased community capacity to develop, maintain and share a place-based performance repertoire and the potential to nourish social cohesion, strengthen connection to Country and aid re-interpretation of the landscape. This should provide benefits to Indigenous wellbeing, environmental understanding and processes of reconciliation.
