  • The Sri Lankan Navy: a Collective Blind Eye
    THE SRI LANKAN NAVY: A COLLECTIVE BLIND EYE OCT 2019 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Our heartfelt thanks go out to the survivors of the Gun Site dungeons who bravely spoke to us, as well as to the other victims of violations committed by members of the Sri Lankan Navy. This report has taken six years and required enormous patience on the part of the victims. We couldn’t have done this work without the invaluable contribution of many Sinhalese – extraordinary researchers, translators, interpreters and the insider witnesses.

  • Looking Back to 2013-2016 (01-02-2013) – (31-12-2016) COSTI 2013 - 2016
    Coordinating Secretariat for Science Technology and Innovation Looking Back to 2013-2016 (01-02-2013) – (31-12-2016) COSTI 2013 - 2016 Foreword The purpose of this report is to summarize and collate as much as possible, the achievements of COSTI over the period 2013-2016. Although COSTI activities are well documented and publicized via the COSTI website www.costi.gov.lk, they may not be evident because of their diversity and multiplicity. COSTI was established by Cabinet approval in September 2011, to fulfill the aspirations of the scientific community of Sri Lanka, who saw the need for an Apex body to coordinate scientific activities being undertaken by National Universities and R&D institutions coming under many Ministries. The former President Mahinda Rajapaksa having assigned the Senior Minister for Scientific Affairs the responsibility of coordination of all scientific activities in the country by Gazette Extraordinary No. 1681/3 of 22 November 2010, placed COSTI under the purview of this Ministry. The implementation of the Science Technology and Innovation Strategy for Sri Lanka based on the National Science & Technology Policy adopted by the Cabinet of Ministers in 2009, is the mandated activity of COSTI.
