The Third National Indigenous Languages Survey (NILS3) sought to answer the question: What is the current state of Indigenous languages in Australia? The aim of this question was to create a snapshot of the current status of Australian languages with a focus on the numbers of speakers, the age and gender distributions of speakers, and how languages are used. It also sought information on documentation for each language.
