SIL Global's Health Initiative

                                                              Lessons in Health & Hygiene, Nepal

SIL is eager for the day when all people enjoy equal access to healthy living, quality education, socio-economic opportunities, and resources for spiritual growth—no matter what language they speak or sign. Unfortunately, access to relevant health information continues to be a growing challenge for minority language communities across the globe. This is due to the simple fact that foundational resources, basic services and general healthcare materials are often not available in the languages that these minority communities most deeply understand.

SIL's Multi-pronged Solution Strategy

Focusing on key health topics such as mental health and well-being, support for families of children with disabilities, and adolescent health and hygiene, SIL will facilitate language projects that lead to improved health outcomes for minority language communities.
