An Indigenous group in north-west Queensland will use innovative software to launch a new educational program for Aborigines.
The Camooweal-based Dugalunji Aboriginal Corporation has received more than $120,000 in Federal Government funding to teach maths and English using Aboriginal dialects.
Dugalunji Aboriginal Corporation spokesman Colin Saltmere says Mount Isa TAFE will assist in delivering the courses by August.
"Not only the Indjulundji but the Yorlta people, and if there are other language speakers in our group - and there is - we hope that they too can actually interpret that too into their literacy and numeracy program and then talk to us about taking it back to their communities and helping build those communities up," he said.
