Who We Are

Ghana Institute of Linguistics Literacy and Bible Translation (GILLBT) is a Ghanaian Christian non-governmental and mission organization contributing to the “Great Commission” by advancing Bible translation, mother tongue literacy, and language development across Ghana.

We believe that literacy in one’s mother tongue and access to God’s Word in the language people understand best are powerful tools for spiritual growth, personal freedom, and community transformation.

Vision

To transform lives through access to the word of God in the mother tongue.

Mission

To accelerate access to the word of God for transformation, through translation into mother tongue and literacy in a professional manner; in partnership with others in fulfilment of the Great Commission.

Core Values

● It is required that all business and activity entered into by the Institute or any of its agents is undertaken in an appropriate manner within a proper ethical framework, and due ethical consideration is given to all undertakings, be they linguistics, literacy, translation, hospitality service etc.

● As a Christian organisation, every member is also required to adhere to the Statement of Core Values - Faith in God through Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour and the Bible as the basis of all rules and conduct.

● In line with our mission, we greatly value and push freedom of knowledge in one's mother tongue forward, within an ethical framework for total salvation for all nations.
