  • IUC NN Commission Members from Sri Lanka
    International Union for Conservation of Nature IIUUCCNN Commission Members from Sri Lanka Volume I – (Updated on 15.06.2015) IUCN Commission Members from Sri Lanka Message from IUCN National Committee Chair One of the IUCN strengths is to bring ecosystem related information, science and advise into the sustainable development processes. In that context IUCN Sri Lanka has contributed in the past towards a number of national policy and on the ground efforts. At a time post- conflict development in Sri Lanka is advancing fast with potential increase of the pressure on the natural resources. Management of the natural capital in a sustainable way while supporting development is a major challenge where information based multi-sector approaches are very much needed. Already the IUCN developed information on biodiversity, marine and coastal and water resources etc. are being used by the Government, Non-Government and Private Sector, extensively. However Sri Lanka has not fully utilized the potential contribution of IUCN Commissions and its membership. As the new Chairperson of the IUCN National Council, I wish to take this opportunity to express my appreciation for the contributions by the IUCN Commissions and Commission members in ensuring this planet a better place for us and the generations to come. Looking forward to work with you more and hope this compendium of experts will be helpful for all and expand to include other Sri Lankan experts as well. Anura Sathurusinghe, Conservator General of Forests and Chairperson, IUCN National Committee 2 IUCN Commission Members from Sri Lanka Forward This directory is prepared for the first time to capture the information on IUCN Sri Lanka related entities.

EXTERNAL REVIEW PROCESS The external review process of libraries is planned to upgrade the university library service and to share good practices without imposing an additional burden on the libraries under review. The aim is to use evidence and data generated and used by the library itself to appraise quality of its services. Greater the reliance of external quality assessment upon the library’s own evidence of self evaluation, greater the prospect that stands will be safeguarded and quality will be enhanced. Purposes of the external review process in libraries are to: (1) safeguard the quality and effectiveness of library services in Sri Lankan universities; (2) facilitate continuous quality improvement; (3) encourage good management of university libraries; (4) instill confidence in a library’s capacity to safeguard the quality and effectiveness of its services, both internally and externally; (5) identify and share good practices in the provision library services; (6) achieve accountability through external quality assessment and a public report; and (7) provide systematic, clear and assessable information on the university library services. Main features of the external review process includes: (1) production of an analytical Self Evaluation Report (SER) by the library staff; (2) review against the vision, mission, goals and objectives contained in the SER and a review visit of 3 days; and (3) publishing the review report with judgments, and the strengths/good practices and weaknesses identified.
