40 years of Croatian Studies at Macquarie University

Summary

Ingrid Piller speaks with Jasna Novak Milić, the director of the Croatian Studies Center at Macquarie University.

The Croatian Studies Center at Macquarie University hosts one of a very small number of Croatian Studies programs at university level outside Croatia. We talk about Croatian Studies in the diaspora, small languages in higher education, and why the availability of languages programs in higher education is critical for heritage language maintenance.
