New USD 2.8 mn project in Northern Province
The Island
|May 29, 2025
ILO initiative backed by Australia and Norway
-
The International Labour Organisation (ILO), in partnership with the Government of Australia and the Government of Norway, recently launched the GROW ProjectGenerating Resilient Opportunities for Work - a transformative US$2.8 million initiative aimed at strengthening livelihoods, climate resilience, and social empowerment for marginalised communities in Sri Lanka's Northern Province.
The Northern Province — home to over 75,000 women-headed households and more than 21,000 persons with disabilities — continues to face significant challenges following years of conflict, economic hardship, and intensifying climate hazards. GROW addresses these intersecting challenges head-on through a three-pronged strategy: economic empowerment, social inclusion, and climate resilience according to a statement issued by ILO Country Office for Sri Lanka and the Maldives.
