  • National Urban Workshop on Improving Living Environment and Health Condition of the Low Income Families in Urban Settlements, Held from 21St to 25Th October 2004
    National Urban Workshop on improving Living Environment and Health Condition of the Low Income Families in Urban Settlements, held from 21st to 25th October 2004 by the Janarukula Background Women’s Development Bank Federation (WDBF) which was promoted on 10th February 1998 carried out its saving and credit programs covering both urban and poor families living in several districts in Sri Lanka. Under this program 5 to 10 women were brought into one cohesive mutual help group. Every week every member saves Rs.5 in these groups. These saving are used to provide small loans to these members to meet their emergencies. Several groups in a settlement get together for solidarity purpose and from an entity called a Primary Society. These primary societies again federate at zonal level to from the Zonal Societies and at Districts Societies. WDBF is the Apex entity at national level to institutionalize and to coordinate all these women’s groups. The national conventions of the WDBF held in 1999 and 2003 proved how strongly that these Women’s Groups spread in urban settlements and rural hamlets in SriLanka, have come to be a reinforcing mechanism to address the issues of both rural and urban poor. Although WDBF is an endeavor of the poor to improve their own living condition by mobilizing their own resources, later it realized the importance of working in partnership with the other government and local government actors engaged in improving the living conditions of the people in various spheres. Accordingly WDBF at local level joined hands with respective Local Authorities, Grama Nildhharis, (Village level government officer) Public Health Inspectors, Officers of Agricultural and Agrarian Services Departments, and made use of their expertise in implementing its programs, such as promoting lavatory facilities, obtaining land clearance, and providing cultivation loans etc for improving conditions of the low income settlements in both rural and urban areas.
