Community Involvement
SIL values joint planning and cooperation with community members and development agencies. An increasing number of SIL
personnel offer significant time to the training and mentoring of
local colleagues. A series of capacity building workshops are
being conducted which offer supervised mentoring practice to equip
community members to in turn equip others to participate more
fully in language development activities.
Recently a course was offered in Manila to enable development
professionals to write curriculum plans for training and mentoring
courses in health and literacy. This course, Health and
Development: Equipping for Community Service, taught by Dr.
Stephen and Karen Lynip is an adaptation of the Teacher Training
for Community Service course that SIL has offered annually since
1983.
SIL Philippines also works closely with members of The
Translators Association of the Philippines (TAP) to promote development initiatives among the indigenous cultural
communities.
