Better health starts with better information!
Accurate,
accessible health information has the power to save lives. However,
millions of people around the world face a simple yet vexing barrier to
getting quality health information: language. Health Speaks is an
initiative to help communities overcome this obstacle by translating
high-quality health information into their local languages.
Combining
the power of local expertise with efficient online tools like the
Google Translator Toolkit, Health Speaks aims to efficiently increase
the amount of quality health information available online in local
languages.
See how it works and help make health information accessible to your community!
