Our Business

We respond to local community needs on Language initiatives. We support the resource development for Language revitalisation in local education spaces and in the wider community. We support Language learners, teachers and speakers to continue to grow the Gathang Language. We maximise the exposure and visibility of the Gathang Language within the Northern Birrbay community. We support other Gathang Language communities by sharing our practice and resources.
