SIL International

SIL is a global, faith-based nonprofit that works with local communities around the world to develop language solutions that expand possibilities for a better life. We are involved in approximately 1,350 active language projects in 104 countries. These projects impact more than 1.1 billion people within 1,600 local communities.


We long to see people flourishing in community using the languages they value most. This includes flourishing in the digital sphere where AI and Natural Language Processing (NLP) is increasingly driving the features of products. We work to make sure that the benefits of AI and NLP extend to local language communities.
