ILEP has developed a range of technical resources to guide and assist those working in the area of leprosy, from field based health workers, to programme and senior managers. We encourage the widest possible dissemination and use of these publications.  

Most ILEP publications are available in English, French, Portuguese and Spanish. These publications may be downloaded free-of-cost.

In most cases, ILEP publications may also be freely translated into other languages for local use. Please contact the ILEP Technical and Information Co-ordinator for more information.
