We see the achievement of our goal through the creation of a body able to promote and lobby for political change for peace within a discourse of nations building - the building of a Sri Lankan state whereby its Tamil, Singhalese and Sri Lankan Moors nations can coexist, cherishing and respecting their diversity through power-sharing. We are aiming for the establishment of a National Peace Foundation which will assume the moral leadership for the mobilization of a movement for peace.
Our work aims:
- To increase the understanding of the Sri Lankan ethnic conflict, the concepts of social justice and building inter-religious/ethnic harmony.
- To enable individuals and communities to become proactive decision makers and participate in the political process.
- To develop peace building, conflict transformation, human rights and facilitation skills so that participants themselves can apply skills and tools to the context of their every day life.
- To develop capacities and create a space to institutionalize the peace-building and conflict transformation concepts within the system and within sub systems.
- To create the capacities to connect with the world while protecting unique cultural and ethnic identities.
