UNDP Sri Lanka together with Government of Sri Lanka to implement initiatives that empower Sri Lankan communities through climate-smart agriculture and inclusive mine action The Government of Japan through its Japanese Supplementary Budget (JSB) has reaffirmed its commitment to supporting Sri Lanka’s development journey by announcing two new projects, aimed at fostering climate resilience in vulnerable communities and advancing gender equality. These initiatives, together with the Government of Sri Lanka and implemented in partnership with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Sri Lanka, will contribute significantly to sustainable recovery from the disaster and inclusive development across the country. The first project titled ‘Net-Zero, Nature-Positive Dairy – Climate-Smart Dairy Value Chains through Energy Transition & Nature-Based Solutions’ establishes a Climate-Smart Dairy (CSD) ecosystem, integrating inclusive green technologies, sustainable farming practices, and market-driven solutions to reduce emissions, enhance dairy yield, and build adaptive capacity among vulnerable communities. Together with the Ministry of Rural Development and Social Security, Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Energy for overall policy guidance, the initiative aims to directly benefit 750 smallholder farmers and indirectly reach over 5,000 people including family members, aspiring youth agri-entrepreneurs, veterinary officers, animal health professionals, local milk collectors, and other community members-particularly women and youth in the climate-vulnerable districts of Kilinochchi in the Northern Province and Nuwara Eliya in the Central Province, contributing to long-term livelihood and human security. With a funding envelope of USD 1.5 Million, the project builds on evidence and promising practices from previous initiatives, demonstrating the viability of renewable energy-based modernisation approaches for rural communities. The second project titled, ‘Gender Responsive Advancement and Operational Enhancement of Women Deminers in the Northern and Eastern Provinces of Sri Lanka’ will further enhance the capacity and operational effectiveness of women deminers in Sri Lanka’s Northern and Eastern Provinces, with a particular focus on Kilinochchi and Mullaitivu. These districts remain among the most vulnerable in the country, according to UNDP’s 2023 Multidimensional Vulnerability Index, with vulnerability levels stand at 70% in Kilinochchi and 72...
