What is LEAD

Language, Education, and Development. We work to improve language resources, education resources and development resources in Asia.

LEAD is a vision of minority communities reaching their education and development goals while valuing their languages and cultures.

LEAD Asia, a unit of SIL in Asia, works with these communities to help them build the skills they need to engage with development opportunities, and to become better advocates for themselves. We also work to link communities with resources when it is needed and desired.

We want to partner with supporters, donors, and advocates to strengthen our work with communities in Asia.

No Language Without Books

Numbers are daunting and often the more numbers you throw at people, the more desensitizing it is to the audience. So we could throw numbers around about how many languages there are in the world, in Asia, and how few of those are represented in the education system. But what we want to see are people like Bonomali, who is from a Koda community.
