About the episode
In the first episode of Guardians of Language and Country, we're travelling to Far North Queensland into the coastal tropical rainforests of Mamu Ngiirma country in Innisfail. Hosts Donnie Johannessen and Alden Lyall take us to the heart of the community to learn all about how locals are preserving language and how to embed language into everyday life. We'll hear from local Mamu elders Stephen Purcell, Alf Joyce, and ranger Francis Joyce and also hear about the creation of a cultural heritage project, Dungaloi.
