The campaign went live last week on catch up TV and social media.
Australian National University’s School of Culture, History and Language has launched a new campaign via Campaign Edge to inspire people to study a rarely taught language.
These include Burmese, Hindi, Mongolian, Sanskrit, Tetum, Thai, Tibetan, Tok Pisin and Vietnamese.
Research found the biggest driver to learning a rarely taught language was a family connection to the language.
“Language is not just about understanding words. It allows you to see a culture beyond the superficial," Campaign Edge executive creative director Dee Madigan says.
“For many people with a heritage connection to these languages, it allows them to get a deeper insight into where they are from."
With COVID limitations, this was an opportunity for clever copywriting and beautiful typography to tell the story.
