Sri Lanka

With our partners and local communities, Pact is working in Sri Lanka to strengthen civil society, independent media and democratic values.

In Sri Lanka, Pact and our partners are working to improve governance through the CSM-STAND project. Our programming is assisting Sri Lanka in maintaining a vibrant civil society that empowers citizens to advance the democratic values of citizen participation. This includes linking civil society organizations across communities, districts and regions to have a voice in local governance and national reform processes. We are also supporting independent media that drives positive change toward a more responsive and democratic space, with a focus on ensuring that vital information reaches and reflects Sri Lanka’s communities.
