Stories of Sri Lankan Women is one of our flagship programs, embodying our beliefs and mission. Through this work, we bring to the forefront stories of girls and women who are inspirational figures from our history (and living history) and who have resisted patriarchal structures in different ways. The stories highlight Sri Lankan women whose lives, work, and experiences have shaped and were shaped by our social, political, and cultural contexts. 

This work intends to create a compendium and publicly accessible archive of Sri Lankan women’s stories over the last 100 years to understand their life cycle. Through these stories, we hope to peel back the layers of resistance and add depth to understanding struggles in the particular context in which they took place.
