Message from the National Director
Dear Friends and Partners,
This April was a significant month for Caritas Sri Lanka as we advanced
our communication, food security, and peace-building efforts through
impactful collaborations and activities.
We were honoured to welcome Mr. Frode Nordahl, Head of
Communications at Caritas Norway, whose visit enriched our
communication capacity. His workshop empowered our teams
with tools for storytelling, transparency, and global engagement.
The subsequent field visits captured inspiring beneficiary stories,
deepening our connection with those we serve.
April also marked our Annual Review Meetings, where diocesan
centres shared experiences and innovations in implementing the Food Security Program. These gatherings reinforced our collective commitment to accountability, community empowerment, and sustainable development.
Regionally, our participation in the Asia Human Mobility Workshop in Bangkok allowed us to share the Sri Lankan context and strengthen solidarity on migration issues. At home, initiatives like the inter-religious training in schools, poultry distribution in Ratnapura, and child nutrition in Haputale showcased our
continued dedication to grassroots empowerment and peace-building.
I extend my gratitude to our partners, teams, and communities. Let us move forward with unity, compassion,and purpose.NL APRIL
Fr. Luke Nelson Perera
National Director
