The HiML programme delivers education sessions in the participants’ native languages.

The Australian government is investing $3.5m (A$5.4m) to extend the Health in My Language (HiML) programme for migrant and refugee women.

The funding will enable the Multicultural Centre for Women’s Health to continue delivering the program across all states and territories in 2025–2026.
