  • Loyola College Negombo Advanced Level Students' Visit to Jaffna And
    Loyola College Negombo Advanced Level Students’ visit to Jaffna and Vavuniya The North-South Dialogue Desk of Lanka Centre for Social Concern initiated another exposure program for the Advanced Level students of Loyola College, Negombo. They spent three days in Jaffna, Vavuniya and the Madhu Shrine. Before they left for Jaffna, there was an input session to orient their exposure program. “Where are we going?” “Who are the people we are expected to meet?” “What happened to Jaffna during the past thirty years? What will be there along the A9 road? Who are these people in Cheddikulam, Kodikamam camps and why are they in camps for the Internally Displaced? What is the difference between a pleasure trip to Jaffna and our exposure visit to Jaffna?’ were some questions reflected upon before their exposure visit. Fr. Chandana Lal, the Vice Principal and a few members of the tutorial staff joined the program and organized it well. On their way to Jaffna, Fr. Joel, the JRS Country Director extended them a warm welcome and hosted a grand breakfast in the JRS Vavuniya Office. The NSDD group with a few University students joined the Loyola College students in Vavuniya. Before the arrival of the Loyola students, the NSDD group had an interesting session with Fr. Joel on “What happened then in Sri Lanka” a brief but thought- provoking session on the current situation of our country. Then the NSDD group was busy with exposing the realities of VAROD (Vanni Rehabilitation Organization of Differently Abled) in Pampemadhu to the Loyola Students. VAROD cares for the war victims who were made physically and mentally disabled and the mentally malfunctioning orphans who have lost their parents during the war.

  • Angelina Jolie's Sri Lanka Journal
    Angelina Jolie’s Sri Lanka Journal April 14th and15th 2003 There are many humanitarian concerns regarding the displaced and recently returned in Sri Lanka (both internallly displaced persons/ IDPs and refugees) after nearly two decades of conflict. These include danger from landmines and unexploded ordnance, inadequate shelter, food, water, sanitation facilities, health facilities, educational facilities and little to no justice. For these reasons, at the time of our visit, UNHCR in Sri Lanka cannot yet advocate organized return until conditions become more conducive to the displaced restarting their lives in safety and dignity. Despite the welcome political progress that has been made since the signing of the cease-fire in February 2002, the humanitarian needs in Sri Lanka are currently growing as a result of the large numbers of spontaneously returning IDPs (approximately 271,000 of 800,000 in 2002). Over the past year, while donor counties and aid agencies have begun “investing” in the war-affected areas of the North and East, more targeted poverty reduction, infrastructure repair, and reconciliation programs are needed to ensure that IDPs and refugees can not only to their pre-war homes, but can recover their dignity as they seek normalcy. We fly from Colombo up to Jaffna (click here for the map) and arrive at the high security airport at Palali. No civilian movement is allowed in this area. Ten thousand families are still prevented from returning due to the “restricted movement in high security zones.” Freedom of movement has been improved since the first of February. The main north-south road opened in April 2002.

  • Challenges in Utilizing Water Resources in Lower Reaches of Kanakarayanaru of Northern Sri Lanka for Efficient and Equitable Water Allocation
    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research, Volume 9, Issue 7, July-2018 821 ISSN 2229-5518 Challenges in Utilizing Water Resources in Lower Reaches of Kanakarayanaru of Northern Sri Lanka for Efficient and Equitable Water Allocation Suthaharan, N., Ratnaweera, H.C., and Sivakumar, S.S., Abstract— Even though the Northern part of Sri Lanka is dry zone, it has potential water resources by the means of constructed tanks and diversion along the river basins. But some part of this region still frequently suffering many water related issues and water scarcity, not only in the domestic usage but also for demand for agriculture. Meanwhile, inefficient rain water management especially, during the heavy rain period in the Monsoon time allows to reach rain water in to the ocean without any proper usage. These issues should be addressed by way of sustainable water resources development and efficient water management process. The Kangarayan Aru is the largest river basin in the Northern Province. Water resource has been almost exhausted in the upper reaches of this basin with the recent augmentation of Iranamdu Irrigation Reservoirs in Kilinochchi District. However, there is amble water potential in the lower reaches of KanakarayanAruie below the Iranamdu. That should be considered for the sustainable solution for increasing water demand across the water sectors to support irrigated agriculture, urban development and domestic needs for growing populations within and out of this basin. This paper outlines the research problem of an ongoing research and spell out a possible research solution to manage water resources in sustainable manner in the study area of Lower reaches of Kanakarayan River basin Index Terms—Sustainable Water Resources, Lower Reaches, River Basin, Equitable Water Allocation, Kanakarayanaru, Iranamadu.
