Our Guiding Principles

The principles behind our work.

01. Ecological Sanctity

Economic development must never compromise the biological integrity of Sri Lanka's wildlife habitats or watershed systems.

02. National Sovereignty

We champion domestic value-addition for mineral and marine resources to liberate the nation from debilitating import debts.

03. Grassroots Dignity

Interventions are co-designed with rural communities, farmers, elders, and youth rather than imposed top-down.

04. Accountable Reporting

We report our plans, progress and finances to the NGO Secretariat, and share our work openly.
