Green Movement of Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka

Environment

The Green Movement of Sri Lanka (GMSL) is an organization concerned with Environmental Conservation and Awareness Creation. It is a consortium with 153 non-governmental organizations, community based organizations and other groups spread around the Island involved in natural resource management. Further, it is a part of a network of 78 international organizations as well. The GMSL envisions the achievement of natural resource based sustainable development through the empowerment of the poorest sections of the population and conservation of the environment through activities aimed at developing vibrant and sustainable communities throughout the island. Empowered by the sense of social responsibility and a sensitivity to our cultural ethos, we devise effective measures for the conservation of flora and fauna while protecting the country's natural wealth from being exploited by multinationals either directly or through the “generous” development policies of the multilateral organizations which look after their interests such as the World Bank, International Monetary Fund, World Trade Organization and the Asia Development Bank.
