Project Profile
Health-Inc. (www.health-inc.org) works with local residents of Ladakh (Jammu & Kashmir province,
northern India) to bring better nutrition, healthcare, and education to the region. The organization's accomplishments
include designing and publishing curricular materials in the Ladakhi and Urdu languages, training teachers who work in government
schools, researching effective pedagogical methods, and developing educational models that can be used by NGO's around
the world. The Omprakash Foundation is honored to begin helping Health-Inc. find volunteers, gain publicity, publish
its educational materials, and further develop its pilot programs. We have also begun posting some of Health-Inc.'s
books on our website so that other educational projects can view or download them for their own purposes. To view these
books, please check out our Educational Resources page. To learn more about Health-Inc. and how you can help, contact willy@omprakash.org or Cynthia Hunt at healthinc2001@yahoo.com.
