Our languages matter – Bunurong Country

Geographic Names Victoria worked with Bunurong Land Council to deliver an Our languages matter workshop which is an Aboriginal-led workshop which recognises the importance of Aboriginal place naming and helps to strengthen partnerships with Traditional Owners (TOs). – This was attended by over 40 Council officers and Traditional Owners. Attendees were taken through the importance of language and the processes to request the use of language. 

This collaborative platform was established to enable the community of the International Decade of Indigenous Languages (IDIL 2022–2032) to share events, activities, and resources. The content published on the platform is the responsibility of registered users and does not commit the Secretariat of the Decade (UNESCO) and/or the Members of the Global Task Force for Making a Decade of Action for Indigenous Languages. Please note that the platform has been inactive since February 2025 and no longer accepts new uploads. While work is underway to provide an updated solution, the Secretariat of IDIL 2022–2032 remains available for any inquiries at: indigenous.languages@unesco.org.
