Funded Activity Summary

Interpreting services for Australian Aboriginal languages . This project aims to investigate interpreting practice with First Nations Peoples. This project expects to generate new knowledge in the area of healthcare interpreting using an ethnographic and micro-analytical approach to actual in situ interpreter mediated interactions. Expected outcomes include enhanced capacity to improve interpreter service delivery for First Nations Peoples via the development of resources for best-practice communication in plain language and Australian Aboriginal languages spoken in Western Australia. This should provide significant benefits such as improving First Nations Peoples’ wellbeing and interpreter and practitioner health literacy, as well as enabling governing bodies to finetune multilingual policies.
