This project aims to identify language development paths of Indigenous children in Central Australia by examining the spoken language, gesture and sign of children’s early interactions. It expects to generate new knowledge for the health and education sector, and Indigenous families, about children’s language development, enabling reliable identification of typical development. Expected outcomes include theoretical contributions to language and cognition internationally and uptake of the findings by Australian health and education sector staff and Indigenous communities. This should provide significant benefits to Indigenous families through increased capacity of families and professionals to identify service needs in language development.

该项目旨在通过研究儿童早期互动的口语、手势和手势，确定澳大利亚中部土著儿童的语言发展路径。它预计将为卫生和教育部门以及原住民家庭提供有关儿童语言发展的新知识，从而能够可靠地识别典型发展。预期成果包括对国际语言和认知的理论贡献，以及澳大利亚卫生和教育部门工作人员和土著社区对研究结果的吸收。这将通过提高家庭和专业人员确定语言发展服务需求的能力，为土著家庭带来重大利益。
