Sri Lanka

ICNL’s resources and information on Sri Lanka.

Overview

ICNL is supporting local partners to advance enabling legal reform. Following successful push-back in 2018 against a restrictive government proposal to revise the Voluntary Social Service Organizations (VSSO) Act, ICNL provided comparative expertise to a civil society committee tasked with preparing a more enabling reform proposal.

ICNL is opposed to all forms of trafficking in persons and is committed to mitigating the risk of trafficking in persons in connection with its operations and programs. It is the policy of ICNL to comply fully with the provisions of our cooperative agreements regarding trafficking in persons. Read our full policy here.
