Coastal Rising

Produced to commemorate two years after the Asian tsunami devastated the Eastern and Southern coasts of Sri Lanka, this trilingual multimedia campaign highlights the success stories of tsunami recovery initiatives from the districts of Trincomalee, Batticaloa, Ampara, Galle, Hambantota and Matara.

These stories of success and achievement come from the people who worked within their community in order to restore normalcy to their lives in the face of immeasurable adversity, and are now looking to the future. Many of these experiences reflect the support and participation of various stakeholders including citizens, NGOs, INGOs, and Government organisations, without which they may not have succeeded.
