DESCRIPTION
The Programme in Sri Lanka is based on a rich portfolio of recent and ongoing projects in the human settlements sector. Through interaction with Sri Lanka’s development partners and increasingly also humanitatian agencies, the HCPD has been prepared, including the human settlements agenda as incorporated in the UNDAF. While for some of the proposed activities funds have been identified, there are activities in the pipeline, which still require funding.

ExECUTivE DiRECTOR In April �007, the Govern-ing Council of UN-HABITAT approved our �008-�013 Medium-Term Strategic and Institutional Plan. This plan intends to promote the alignment of UN-HABITAT normative and operational activities at country level.
The UN-HABITAT Country Pro-gramme Documents (HCPD) are tangible components of this Plan as well as a genuine endeavour of UN-HABITAT to better coordinate normative and opera-tional activities in a consultative and inclusive process involving UN-HABITAT’s in-country focal points, UN-HABITAT Programme Managers, national governments, UN country teams, sister-UN agencies, development partners and all divisions of our Agency. The UN-HABI-TAT Country Programme Documents are strategic tools meant as a guide for all UN-HABITAT activities over a two-year period. A major dimension of the UN-HABI-TAT Country Programme Document is to advocate UN-HABITAT’s mandate and address the urban chal-lenges facing the world’s developing countries.
The UN-HABITAT Country Programme Documents identify national urban development goals and priori-ties including shelter, urban governance, access to basic services and credit. Important cross-cutting issues such as the environment, gender, responses to disas-ters, and vulnerability reduction are also addressed. The UN-HABITAT Country Programme Documents focus on UN-HABITAT country programming. They
serve as a work plan for UN-HABITAT Programme Man-agers and a reference tool for national and local actors involved in sustainable urban development. Accord-ing to the Medium-Term Strategic and Institutional Action Plan adopted by the UN-HABITAT Committee of Permanent Representatives on 6 December �007, twenty UN-HABITAT Country Programme Docu-ments were completed during �008, including the One-UN Pilot countries where UN-HABITAT is active.
In line with the United Nations reform process, UN-HABITAT Country Programme Documents seek to strengthen the role of the United Nations and to demonstrate our commitment. I wish to thank our UN-HABITAT Programme Managers for their input and dedication and for putting together these documents under guidance of the Regional and Technical Cooperation Division and with support from all branches and programmes of the Agency.

MiNiSTERUN-HABITAT has a long his-tory of cooperation in Sri Lanka in human settlements development, particularly in the field of housing and urban development. During an association spanning over two decades, UN-HABITAT has assisted Sri Lanka in the planning and implementation of many of its key develop-
ment programmes. UN-HABITAT’s invaluable role in the aftermath of the December �004 Tsunami, covered a wide range of activities from advocacy to policy advice, coordination and building partner-ships, and last but not least the implementation of housing recovery and reconstruction projects. The people’s process approach used by UN-HABITAT has ensured that the capacity of all communities assisted is built to guarantee long term sustainability.
In March �007, the Governing Council of UN-HABI-TAT approved the �008-�013 Medium-Term Strategic and Institutional Plan which intends in particular to promote the alignment of UN-HABITAT’s normative and operational activities at country level. The UN-HABITAT Country Programme Document (HCPD) for Sri Lanka which is an attempt to translate this Plan into tangible outputs in the country will guide all UN-HABI-TAT activities for the next two years. It has prioritised intervention in the areas of Poverty, IDPs, Governance, Gender, Water and Sanitation, taking into considera-tion the most pressing priority needs of the country.
The HCPD will serve as the work plan for UN-HABI-TAT, which is a strong platform to better coordinate normative and operational activities in a consulta-tive and inclusive process involving UN-HABITAT’s in-country focal points, the Government, sister UN-agencies, development partners and all other stakeholders. The Government of Sri Lanka has worked collaboratively with UN-HABITAT in many of its initiatives, and will continue to do so in its endeavor to accomplish the programmes outlined in the HCPD.

NATiONAL URBAN POLiCY CONTExTSri Lanka at present has a multitude of government ministries responsible for the human settlements and urban sector activities. Interventions relating to policy and programmes take place within this grouping of Ministries. The Ministry of Housing and Common Amenities, the key ministry in the sector, engages mainly in rural housing and other sector related housing activities in partnership with the responsible ministries such as the Ministry of Plantations and Min-istry of Fisheries. The Ministry of Urban Development and Sacred Areas Development works with the urban housing sector, in association with the Ministry of Local Government. Tsunami Resettlement and conflict damaged housing development are under the Ministry of Nation Building and Ministry of Resettlement.
UN-Habitat’s involvement with its main coun-terpart, Ministry of Housing will continue with the development of the National Housing Policy
Framework, world habitat day programmes and the facilitation of the participation of that Min-istry in the Governing Council activities.
The Government’s Ten Year Horizon Development Framework �006-�016 for the urban development sector over the next ten years formulated by the Ministry of Urban Development will lay down the policy framework for this sector aimed at sustain-able urban development and minimizing grow-ing urban poverty. A continuing dialogue will be maintained with the Ministries of Urban Develop-ment and Local Government on the ten year Urban Development Framework, Slum Upgrading Facility programmes and Urban Governance Support.
focuS AReA 1: ADvOCACY, MONiTORiNG AND PARTNERSHiPS
vULNERABiLiTY REDUCTiON
Sri Lanka’s accomplishments in the area of social policy surpass most developing countries. Sri Lanka has made stellar progress on the millennium develop-ment goals: the country has already attained universal primary education and completion and has achieved gender parity at primary and secondary education levels. Sri Lanka’s child and infant mortality rates are unusually low relative to other developing countries, and also compare favorably with some middle income countries. While challenges remain—particularly in improving the quality of education services, tackling persistent child malnutrition, and addressing regional disparities in social outcomes —Sri Lanka’s accomplish-ments are remarkable for a developing country, par-ticularly one that has endured a �0 year civil conflict (World Bank �005). At the same time, consumption income poverty persists and the poor continue to face basic welfare challenges such as malnutrition.
Sri Lanka’s performance on poverty reduction has been more modest. Almost a quarter of Sri Lankan popula-tion is poor, with poverty concentrated in rural areas. Despite average annual economic growth of 4.5 per-cent in the last decade, the decline in poverty has been modest, dampened by growing inequality. If inequality had not increased, poverty reduction would have been more than 5 fold higher. That said, given its much higher level of income, poverty rates in Sri Lanka are still much lower than for most South Asian countries (World Bank �005) and while inequality is much higher than most countries in the region, it is far lower than for many Latin American countries (World Bank �006).

A number of interrelated constraints prevent access by the poor to opportunities in more dynamic sectors of the economy. In poor rural areas and the estates eco-nomic and geographic constraints include inadequate connectivity to markets and growth centers, lack of electricity and transport facilities (infrastructure) and poor quality schools (public services). In poor urban areas constraints include inadequate access to clean water, electricity, sanitation and quality of housing. Population in the estates, North and East, and the tsu-nami-affected coastal areas are more likely to fall into the poverty trap cycle due to historical disadvantages or recent events like civil conflict or natural disasters.
Aside from poverty (low income), Sri Lankans also face considerable vulnerability to income shocks. The poor, with few assets and limited access to markets, are often the hardest hit, but income shocks can also drive many non-poor into poverty. Results from a recent survey, consistent with results from other South Asian countries, show that the major individual risks faced by Sri Lankan households are sickness, disability and death of a family member and unemployment, and the main community-wide (aggregate) shocks include drought, crop failure, and other natural disasters (the most recent and disastrous being the tsunami). More-over, SriLanka has one of the most rapidly aging popu-lations in South Asia. Over the next �5 years, the share of the population over 60 will double from about 10 to �0 percent and this demographic trend will have an aggregate impact on the economy, potentially
changing patterns of labor force participation and the composition of health care, and imposing a strain on traditional and formal income support systems.
In addition societies in the war-affected areas are characterized by ‘distressed livelihoods’ or ‘livelihoods at risk’: They face multiple vulnerabilities caused by unfavorable state policies, environmental hazards, market-related risks and conflict-related uncertain-ties which enhance the threshold of vulnerability. Households thus have to adapt to gradual deteriorat-ing economic trends and to cope with sudden political shocks in the form of violence. In many instances, transitory poverty caused by disruptions of the war (displacement) has declined into chronic poverty.
CAPACiTY DEvELOPMENT
As a consequence of the over two decade old civil conflict in the country, the Government is currently faced with a huge Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) situation. Coping with numbers in excess of 300,000 families displaced both internally and those who have taken refuge outside the country, poses a major challenge to the Government. UN-Habitat is in the UN CHAP appeal for intervention in early recovery through shelter/housing for the returning IDP. With the current emphasis of UN-Habitat on interventions in early recovery (seamless transition from emergency to recovery and reconstruction) in post disaster and

conflict situations, its role perhaps in partnership with UNHCR and other UN Agencies will be expanding.
Need for capacity building for these new challenges and networking with the Ministries of Nation Building, Resettlement and Disaster Management will be high in the priority list for the Agency in the coming years.
focuS AReA 2: PARTiCiPATORY URBAN PLANNiNG, MANAGEMENT AND GOvERNANCE
URBAN PLANNiG MANAGEMENT
Sri Lanka’s Urban Growth rate is currently 3% per year and by �015 majority of the country’s popula-tion will be living in cities. Sri Lankan cities face significant challenges to cope with urban poverty, slum upgrading and improved access to urban basic services especially to the urban poor. Urban settlements of all sizes are experiencing environ-mental stress related to water and sanitation, storm water drainage and solid waste disposal.
Simultaneously the services sector in Sri Lanka is rapidly growing and increasing its share in the national economy in line with global trends. The urban sector plays a key role in this and facilitates this process through the support it gives by way
of infrastructure for the operations. There is also an unbalanced urban growth in the country with the western province being the most developed.
The Government’s Ten Year Horizon Develop-ment Framework �006-�016 will be steer-ing the urban development sector over the next ten years. This framework recognizes the need to ensure sustainable urban development and minimize growing urban poverty. The interven-tion will be under three thematic areas of:
1. Urban infrastructure development �. Urban environment and resource management and 3. Urban Governance.
To this end the national urban planning policy includes for the planning and development of Regional Growth centres linking the hinterland and rural areas to a network of growth centres which will diversify the urban development proc-ess to areas outside the western province.
URBAN GOvERNANCE AND iNSTiTUTiONS
The Government of Sri Lanka is actively engaged in finding a peaceful solution to the long standing conflict which has resulted in military intervention in the North and East of the Country. Decentraliza-tion and devolution of power is being pursued as mitigating solutions for the conflict. All party commit-tees of Parliament are discussing possible options.

In the implementation of the latter strategy, it is inevitable that the urban local authorities, function-ing under a relevant provincial council, will have more autonomy and responsibility in the local level agenda. The participatory governance system field tested by UN-Habitat in 18 Urban Local Authorities will undoubtedly be in this agenda. The current initiatives by UN-Habitat and UNDP with the Ministries of Urban Development and Local Government to institutional-ize the system through national policy and setting up dedicated units in the two ministries with Technical Assistance from UN-Habitat to facilitate and monitor the implementation in selected Growth Centres, will have a significant impact in this regard. This capac-ity building effort will enable the two Ministries to scale up the programme thereafter nationally.
focuS AReA 3: PRO-POOR LAND AND HOUSiNG
LAND fOR HOUSiNG
Land–Man ratio in Sri Lanka is still not a major problem, although urbanization is bringing in increasing pressure on urban land needed for urban development. The land reform laws and the ceiling on housing property laws enacted in the early seventies have made the Government the major property owner in the country. Subsequent
actions on land alienation and transfer of hous-ing title on vested houses to tenants have eased the security of tenure issues to some degree.
Subject of Land is devolved under the Constitution to the Provincial Councils (Sub-national Governments) for allocation and beneficiary selection. However the final conveyance of the state land tile to a ben-eficiary is still a national government function.
It is also necessary to keep in focus some of the following practices and provisions avail-able in the existing laws of the country.
• Permits to occupy State Lands can be issued by a Divisional Secretary (a designated government official) under Sec. �.� of the State Lands Ordinance (SLO). Land Development Ordinance permits are also issued but are conditional, and lease documents issued are acceptable for any transaction including receipt of Tsunami or other relief assistance. Joint owner-ship is also allowed in lease documents under SLO.
• A Lease issued by a Divisional Secretary can be converted into a Free Grant by The President.
• In respect of Private Lands if deeds or docu-ments to establish ownership are not available even in the Land Registry, then that block of land can be acquired by the District Secretary under Sec. � of the Land Acquisition Act and take over possession under Sec 38.A.of the same Act. This

step is taken for the limited purpose of facilitat-ing an issue of a legally valid permit equivalent to a Deed. No compensation is payable as the owners will get their own parcels of land if undisputed.
SHELTER AND BASiC SERviCES
Towns and cities in Sri Lanka are rapidly grow-ing today setting the social, political, cultural and environmental trends, both good and bad. Cities are the hubs of much national production and consump-tion - economic and social processes that gener-ate wealth and opportunity. But they also create disease, crime, pollution, poverty and social unrest.
In Colombo, slum dwellers number more than 50 per cent of the population and have inadequate housing, and poor access to water, sanitation, education or health services. It is essential that policy¬makers understand the power of the city as a catalyst for national development. Sustainable urbanization is one of the most pressing challenges facing the Government in the �1st century.
In Sri Lanka the displacement of large number of families and the destruction of basic infrastructure by man made and natural disasters have resulted in a new set of national and local challenges for policy and strategy development in human settlements.
And although UN-Habitat’s beneficiaries are the urban poor, its key audience remains the policy-maker at every level with the power and authority to tackle urban poverty by providing resources, by removing barriers and by ensuring their human and civil rights.
While the issue of secure tenure is but one of a set of components that contribute to a success-ful shelter strategy, it has been consciously identi-fied because it has a catalytic effect; it invariably leads to other processes and issues vital to sus-tainable shelter delivery and upgrading. Count-less examples reveal that when people are given security of tenure, they tend to invest in the improvement of their homes and neighborhoods.
In building the case and political environment for the eventual adoption of a Convention, Habitat will focus on the essential elements of the right to housing, which has a number of components. The most prominent amongst these, and the one which the Campaign will prioritize, is the right not to be evicted without due legal process. Again, it is vital that the Campaign be seen as a vehicle for the United Nations to use its global position to provide support and cover for people facing daily abuse and threats to their human rights. Fighting forced evictions and promoting sustainable shelter poli-cies, are some of the UN Habitat’s programmes.

Improved housing policies and programmes are a major component of achieving the goal of adequate shelter for all. The development of efficient, effective and affordable housing delivery systems is an essential element of this objective. It is also important to ensure efficient and equitable systems for management and maintenance of the existing housing stock. Further-more, it is essential that housing delivery, management and maintenance systems cater for the diversity of needs. This implies a focus on owner-occupation as well as on rental housing. Moreover, it is essential that all relevant stakeholders (including co-operatives, non-governmental and community-based organizations) are involved in the housing development process.
The Housing and Development Section work is concentrated around normative, advo-cacy and advisory activities related to:
Formulation and implementation of effective housing policies; Upgrading, maintenance and management of existing housing stock; More efficient and effective delivery of affordable housing; Linkages between shelter and income generation; Rental housing; Co-operative housing; and Special needs of vulnerable and disadvantaged groups.
The estimated housing stock in Sri Lanka based on the last official Census is 4.7 million units. A separate Sri Lanka Central Bank study has estimated the shortfall on housing needs in �001 at around 300,000 units with a projection for this shortfall to increase to 650,000 by �010. The tsunami in �004 destroyed around 65,000 housing units completely, and dam-aged a further 33,000 units requiring repair. Sri Lanka pioneered the application of the people based home owner built housing concept from about the seven-ties. Recent experiences seem to indicate that these concepts are being slowly overshadowed by interests in commercial housing initiatives of urban Sri Lanka.
Ironically however Tsunami reconstruction due to its scale of delivery needs, gave a new impetus to the people based concepts through interventions by UN-Habitat. These concepts were later adopted by many of the development partners who came in to help Sri Lanka in Tsunami recovery. UN-Habitat is presently assisting the Ministry of Housing in the develop-ment of a new national housing policy framework. This is being developed with full consultation of all stakeholders and will have the acceptance and com-mitment from all, for a sustainable housing develop-ment process in the country. This will also give an

opportunity for UN-habitat to reinforce the peo-ples’ process in housing development in Sri Lanka.
There still will be the need to build local authority capacity for providing adequate urban basic services to the underserved settlements for which new pro-grammes will need to be developed by UN-Habitat in partnership with the multi-lateral and bi-lateral donors.
focuS AReA 4: STRENGTHENED HUMAN SETTLEMENTS fiNANCE SYSTEMS
HOUSiNG/ URBAN DEvELOPMENT
Sri Lanka has a long and positive track record of pro poor development programmes, particularly in the housing sector. Many countries have emulated Sri Lankans success, innovation, and the lessons of experience in its slum upgrading initiatives. In spite of these successes, the experience has shown that the direct provision or public sector efforts are not enough to reach the scale needed and the main policy challenge remains the attraction of finance to cater to the needs of the poor. The need for long term sustained effort, both to meet existing shortfalls as well as the demands of new housing stocks is very high. Very conservative estimate to meet existing shortfall alone may be in the region of Rs. �00 billion.
Slum Upgrading Facility (SUF) is a new initiative of UN-HABITAT that seeks to assist in the development of bankable projects and financial instruments to attract domestic capital (including commercial finance) for slum and urban upgrading activities. SUF is working with the Government of Sri Lanka in the development of bankable area development projects and intro-duction of housing finance products for the poor.
The studies and discussions indicate that there is a high potential for attracting commercial capital for housing the poor in Sri Lanka. The Ministry of Urban Development and Water Supply and UN-HABI-TAT believe that it is possible to introduce Housing Finance Products for the poor within the country’s banking system. However, discussions with bank-ing sector indicate the need for credit enhancement support in order to mitigate actual and perceived risks in lending to the poor. Based on discussions with banks and best practices elsewhere, the SUF has designed a national credit enhancement facility. This facility which will be a legal entity would be known as the Lanka Financial Services Facility for unders-erved settlements. This facility is designed to provide technical assistance and cutting-edge (high leverage) guarantees to bank sector for lending to the poor.

STRATegy
NATiONAL DEvELOPMENT GOALS AND PRiORiTiESRecognizing the development potential of cities and to implement it’s commitment to the Habitat Agenda, the Government of Sri Lanka launched a National Program for Sustainable Human Settle-ments in 1999, followed by a number of pro-poor urban capacity development projects. These included the Sustainable Colombo Core Area Project (1999-�001), the Sustainable Sri Lanka Cities Program (�001-�003) and the ongoing Urban Govern-ance Support Project (�004-�006), all supported by the UNDP and implemented by UN-Habitat.
With the objective of meeting the need for long term capacity development and institutional strengthen-ing support to a variety of popular, private and public sector partners at different levels of government, the program introduced, applied, adapted and refined innovative urban environmental management and participatory governance approaches, created firm foundation to broaden urban governance to include pro poor approaches and disseminate the lessons learned to more local authorities in Sri Lanka.
Through the project process there has been a positive impact on city environment planning and man-agement; stakeholder participation has increased; better information for decision making is avail-able; demonstration projects introduced alternate
technologies to address environmental issues and the importance of training has been recognized.
Indicators of success is evident from the increas-ing demand from cities, recognition by the Ministries and being invited to be a part of the team on national issues facing local govern-ance, the demonstration projects being repli-cated and the development of a national Capacity Building Agenda for Local Authorities.
The project has successfully expanded its geographi-cal and substantive coverage as it evolved over the years. Currently, it covers 18 Municipalities and Urban Centers including 4 cities in the North and East.
The project has introduced several best practices which have contributed to strengthen urban govern-ance for the more efficient and effective delivery of pro poor urban services. Some of the best practices include development of City Profiles, City Consulta-tions, and introduction of participatory planning and decision making methodologies, participa-tory budgeting and public-private partnerships.
Support tools such as the customized toolkit in all three languages, training modules based on the needs of the local authorities and the application of Environ-mental Management Information Systems have been developed for city up-scaling and national replication

ii. Institutionalizing UGSP
The Government invited them to be part of the team in developing the Urban Sector Policy Framework. The project successfully engineered the develop-ment of the National Policy on Local Govern-ment Capacity Building, currently being finalized for Cabinet approval. It was the prime mover of the proposed Cabinet Memorandum to promote Good Governance at the local government level
To ensure sustainability and reap the maximum benefit from past achievements it is both necessary and vital to institutionalize the adopted approach and lessons learned through selected policy and legal reforms to promote and facilitate national up-scal-ing and replication. Institutionalization is necessary at all three levels – national, provincial and city level.
The Sustainable Cities Program envisaged a final phase to institutionalize the experiences and lessons learnt. A project proposal and request for funding for this phase has been submitted to the Director, External Resources (DER) by the Ministry of Urban Develop-ment and Water Supply. The proposal has been recommended by the DER and forwarded to UNDP.
Sri Lanka is one of the 191 signatories to the Mil-lennium Declaration which emerged out of the Millennium Summit of September �000. Sri Lanka has affirmed its commitment to achieve the Millen-nium Development Goals by �015. This commit-ment signifies a commitment to change. Despite the positive achievements of Sri Lanka in social indica-tors, it is unlikely that the Goals will be achieved with a ‘business as usual’ approach. To achieve them the MDGs must be treated not as abstract ambitions but as practical policy objectives that recognize and understand country specific develop-ment challenges and identify local resources that could be harnessed to overcome them. A real chal-lenge in achieving MDGs in Sri Lanka is the persist-ent regional differences in MDG achievement
With the focus on tsunami recovery and reconstruc-tion shifting the thematic areas where UN-Habi-tat will have joint programming interventions are shelter for Internally Displaced People (IDPs), Poverty Reduction, Gender and Governance, in accord-ance with UNDAF. The most prevalent issues in Sri Lanka at the moment are the IDPs who have no access to sustainable shelter. UN-Habitat will work

UN-HABiTAT PROPOSED STRATEGY fOR THE SECTOR As a fundamental commitment to building consensus, consultation and participatory approaches, UN-habitat will be engaged in the community based strategies in all its interventions. The new national housing policy will be built around this concept and strate-gies to mobilise capital outside government sources for housing development will be pursued. To ensure
continuity and consistency in urban sector policy, a dialogue will be initiated with the Ministry of Urban Development to revive the initiatives for developing an Urban Sector Policy Framework. In partnership with the line ministries of Government, UN-Habitat will be in constant dialogue with donors for resource mobilization. Best practices identified in past and ongoing projects will be documented and translated as operational guidelines for use in future projects. By enabling where possible continuity of employment and performance evaluation for project staff, attempts will be made to build capacity in human resources for future operational activities by UN-Habitat

KEY PRiNCiPLESUn-Habitat in Sri Lanka follows a generic process with regard to management arrangements by the estab-lishment of an institutional network as follows. At the national level all stakeholders and key actors are invited to a Forum constituting a National steering Committee. At this forum which is convened every quarter a policy dialogue, inter ministerial coordina-tion in project implementation and an overall review of progress is undertaken. Participating at this forum would be UN-Habitat’s main government counterpart, other government ministries who have a role in the project, the donors and other key stakeholders. The counterpart Ministry chairs this forum.
Local Authorities in Sri Lanka consists of the Provincial Councils at sub-national level and Municipal Councils, Urban Councils and Pradeshiya Sabbas at local level. All these bodies are elected to office periodically in a multi party election process. The local level bod-ies being the government’s representatives closest to the people have been UN-Habitat’s target in the application of the principles of subsidiarity. Through the Urban Governance Support Project, UN-Habitat in-troduced a community consultation and participatory governance process in the urban local authorities. This process requires the endorsement and active participa-tion of the Local Authorities in UN-Habitat activities at local level. This is ensured by Local Authorities often chairing the local steering committees.
During the tsunami reconstruction activities UN-Habi-tat was active in the coordination of the permanent housing reconstruction undertaken by all development partners. UN-Habitat regularly convened a forum titled the ‘Donor Working Group’ and Housing and Habitat Forum for this purpose. These provided the stakehold-ers a forum for policy dialogue, operational reviews and programme implementation consultations. These activities will be continued and emulated as neces-sary if the proposed intervention by UN-Habitat in the resettlement of conflict affected IDP in Sri Lanka is realized.
As UN-Habitat partners with UNDP in �008 to support the Government in implementing the ambitious ten year Urban Development Framework and the setting up of the Interministerial Commission on Good Local Governance aimed at poverty reduction, sustainable development, localizing MDG interventions, the need for extensive and wider consultation with stakehold-ers will be essential. Setting up a participatory Urban Forum may be a good option for introduction by UN-Habitat in the country.
GENDER
Gender analysis is always carried out in project devel-opment, in policy formulation, planning as well as in operational activities before project implementation and decision making by UN-Habitat in Sri Lanka.
Community Development Councils are the means through which community self-governance and com-munity empowerment are carried out. Great deal of emphasis is placed on gender equity and equality which results in the eventual empowerment of women as they hold positions as office bearers of the CDCs. In addition special emphasis is also placed on liveli-hood activities for women including training in sew-ing, handicrafts, making of coir products etc. A large number of community based organizations and micro finance institutions in Sri Lanka are headed by women and also include a large task force of women who play an integral role in community mobilization and estab-lishment of thrift and savings societies and other micro credit schemes used widely in the SUF project.
UN-Habitat in collaboration with COHRE proposes to promote gender equity in conveyance of title ensuring security of tenure through joint ownership, endeavor-ing in the long run to affect the national level policy. UN-Habitat in preparation of the National Housing Policy framework for the GoSL, strongly promotes the involvement of women in decision making with regard to the housing design and community facilities being the primary user.
iNfORMATiON Due to the number of projects in UN-Habitat’s port-folio, one of the main methods of information shar-ing tends to be through association. The monitoring and reporting to the donors, implementation partners and counterparts involved with UN-Habitat work are the most effective means of sharing information. All of UN-Habitat’s activities with the latest updates are also available online through http://www.unhabitat.lk. During annual events such as the World Habitat Day, exposure is given through mass media for UN-Habitat Programmes.

Habitat Programme Manager in Sri Lanka: Mr. Laxman Perera ([email protected])
This UN-Habitat Country Programme Document (HCPD) sets out UN-Habitat’s activities in Sri Lanka for the period �008 and �009 that will be coordinated and facilitated by the Habitat Programme Manager’s Office in Colombo. The relevance and justification for the Programme is establised, by reference to the UN- Habitat’s global development agenda and the Sri Lanka Governments initiatives in respect of each thematic area. The CPD also sets out the strategies being adopted and the activities that are proposed, to translate the strategies into action and contains the perceived outputs and the measurement indicators which help to guide and track its implementation.
The Programme in Sri Lanka is based on a rich port-folio of recent and ongoing projects in the human settlements sector. Through interaction with Sri Lanka’s development partners and increasingly also humanitatian agencies, the HCPD has been prepared, including the human settlements agenda as incorpo-rated in the UNDAF. While for some of the proposed activities funds have been identified, there are activi-ties in the pipeline, which still require funding.
