Throwback to #ALS2025. Still moved by the powerful performance of the Inyjalarrku β€˜Mermaid’ group. As Mawng singers, dancers, didjeridu players & educators, they carry ceremony across Arnhem Land and beyond. Grateful to have witnessed their work and to be in a space that honours First Nations voices

Another energising Day 2 at #ALS2025, from phonetics and phonology to sociolinguistics, today brought rich discussions and great connections. Ending the day with a well-earned dinner and some much-needed downtime. 🍺
