Yolngu from Arnhemland and other
people from around the world
study Yolngu languages and culture at CDU.
We work with the guidance and approval
of advisors in Yolngu
communities. They include Djuwandayngu, Banyawarra,
Nirrpurandji, Dayngumbu, Djirrimbilpilwuy, and Raymattja.
Students learn culture and kinship
as well as language. Non-Yolngu
students start by studying Dhuwala people and language. Later they
learn about the life, land and language of other groups of people,
like those who speak Dhangu, Djangu, Dhay'yi, Djinba and Dhuwal.
Yolngu study their own languages and connections in the Yolngu
world.
