Artistes on a mission to promote indigenous languages

The National Main Stories

AN Australian indigenous singer is in the country to work with a local female artist in promoting the International Year of Indigenous Languages and ending violence against women and girls.
Emily Wurramara will work with Mereani Masani in a range of activities organised by the Australian High Commission.
Wurramara and Masani took part in cultural identity workshops and mentored high school students and youths in Port Moresby yesterday.
They travel to Goroka today.
The workshops are to highlight to young people the importance of preserving and promoting languages which are an important component of their cultural identity.
They will also introduce the “No Moa” video at the PNG 2019 Human Rights Film Festival in Goroka.
The video is being used as a campaign tool to raise awareness on ending violence against women and girls.

One thought on “Artistes on a mission to promote indigenous languages”

  • That sounds good when it comes to High School Students and Youths. hope something important is needed to be presented and wanted to participate there.
    should we know which part of Goroka will the awareness be made?
