LCRC - Language and Culture Research Centre

The primary primary aim of the LCRC is to investigate the relationship between language and the cultural behaviour of those who speak it, and the relations between anthropology, cognition studies and linguistics.

The LCRC brings together linguists, anthropologists, social scientists and those working in the humanities, under the leadership of Distinguished Professor Alexandra Y. Aikhenvald and Adjunct Professor R. M. W. Dixon.

LCRCs precursor, the Research Centre for Linguistic Typology, was established at the Australian National University in 1996.
