Visiting the home of Footprints in Time
Today Sarah Verdon and I drove from Bathurst to Canberra to work with Deborah Kikkawa and Fiona Skelton to discuss papers and analyse data from the Footprints in Time: The Longitudinal Study of Indigenous Children (LSIC). We are very grateful for their generous advice and time. In the next week or so Sarah will submit a paper to a journal considering Indigenous children's language maintenance, we will present a paper at the AIATSIS conference , and we will submit a paper to the wave 5 LSIC report.
