In July 2022, KNAC launched the Nyiyaparli Living Language Project (NLLP) with the aim of preserving our critically endangered Nyiyaparli language, forever. Like many Australian Indigenous languages, Nyiyaparli faces critical endangerment, with fewer than 10 fluent senior language speakers.
Our project was developed by Elders and is managed by a cultural working group who oversee the development and distribution of language products that promote, engage and celebrate Nyiyaparli language and the knowledge it holds for future generations.
