ART GOLD SRI LANKA: CONNECTING PEOPLE FOR HUMAN DEVELOPMENT

Andrei Rami Rodan

Abstract


The ART Gold Sri Lanka (AGSL) Programme was initiated in the aftermath of the tsunami of 2004 not only to support the immediate recovery phase but also to facilitate a sustainable longer-term development process, by reinforcing the ability of local actors to plan and manage territorial development. This video is a result of a participatory research process, conducted prior to the filming stage, with the main actors in the ASGL (the members and representatives of the local community, AGSL community development officers and project directors, local government officials, representatives of the main international donors and UN organizations). The film documents some of the development projects implemented in the South of Sri Lanka.
