Since March 2022, SCOPE has worked with more than 50 government and civil society partners to enhance community and institutional capacities, promote a more inclusive public discourse, and support economic inclusion. Over the course of its implementation, SCOPE engaged with more than 175,000 people across all 25 districts of Sri Lanka. SCOPE is co-funded by the European Union and the German Federal Foreign Office, and implemented by GIZ in partnership with the Ministry of Justice and National Integration.
