Jakelin Troy is a Ngarigu woman and Director of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Research at The University of Sydney. Professor Troy’s research and academic interests focus on languages, particularly endangered Aboriginal and ‘contact languages’, language education, linguistics, anthropology and visual arts.

Professor Troy will talk about her recent work from 13:30 to 14:30 (including Q & A). Her presentation will be followed by light refreshments.

An abstract will follow closer to the event.
