Description: This project documents the linguistic practices of the Gildipasi community in Madang province, Papua New Guinea. There are four languages indigenous to Gildipasi, all of which are endangered: Barem, Waskia, Manep and Yamben. Through recordings of narratives, interviews, group dialogues and bush walks, this project documents two realms of knowledge: tumbuna (ancestor) stories, traditional stories connecting language communities to the landscape, and tumbuna knowledge, traditional practices for living off the land, such as traditional medicine, agriculture, and hunting.
