Socio-religious desegregation in an immediate postwar town Jaffna, Sri Lanka Delon MADAVAN PhD candidate and Junior Lecturer in Geography Université Paris-IV Sorbonne Laboratoire Espaces, Nature et Culture (UMR 8185) [email protected] Abstract The cease-fire agreement of 2002 between the Sri Lankan state and the separatist movement of Liberalisation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), was an opportunity to analyze the role of war and then of the cessation of fighting as a potential process of transformation of the segregation at Jaffna in the context of immediate post-war period. Indeed, the armed conflict (1987-2001), with the abolition of the caste system by the LTTE and repeated displacements of people, has been a breakdown for Jaffnese society. The weight of the hierarchical castes system and the one of religious communities, which partially determine the town's prewar population distribution, the choice of spouse, social networks of individuals, values and taboos of society, have been questioned as a result of the conflict.

The Rapid Integrated Assesment (RIA) is a first step in the process of aligning the country,s national development plan or public Investment programme with SDGs and RIA reveals an uneven alignment between the policy initiatives in the 2017 -2020 Public Investment Programme and the SDG target areas for the economy as (84%) people (80%) planet (58%) peace (42%) and partnership (38%). 2. After deducting debt repayments, the Government has allocated Rs. 440,787 million or 18 percent out of the total national budget of Rs. 2,997,845 million on major projects which identified major targets of relevant SDGs in the year 2018. 3.

  • Gradua Te Research Series
    Forced Relocation after the Indian Ocean Tsunami 2004 Forced Relocation after the Case study of vulnerable populations in three relocation settlements in Galle, Sri Lanka Indian Ocean Tsunami 2004 by Nishara Fernando Case study of vulnerable populations in three relocation settlements in Galle, Sri Lanka Populations may be displaced mainly because of natural and technological disasters, large-scale development projects and conflicts. Various governments have used by Nishara Fernando voluntary and involuntary relocation of such displaced populations into new settle- ments. However, relocation needs careful planning as it builds new communities. Without this, relocated communities could become more vulnerable to poverty and chronic poverty situations, which could lead to relocation failures. This PhD dissertation investigates the impact of forced relocation on the livelihoods of residents who lived in the city of Galle, Southern Province of Sri Lanka, prior to the 2004 tsunami, who were forcibly relocated into new settlements situated far from Galle city because of the “buffer zone regulation” (no construction zone). This study also examines livelihood strategies (i.e., coping and enhancement) employed by forcibly relocated people against various stresses and risks emanat- ing from forced relocation by adopting a socio-geographical approach. It further attempts to show how all these risks and stresses have increased social vulnerability, threatening the livelihood security of the relocated people in general and in some groups, in particular in three research locations. RESEARCH SERIES Finally, various findings of this research study will no doubt shed more light to form new policies on disaster-induced displacement and relocation processes.
