About Us

In Sri Lanka, the extended family culture, which displays how much strong the relationship between the parents and their children, clearly illustrates the Sri Lankan proud identity.

Activities

National Council for Elders and National Secretariat for Elders have been established under the Protection of Elders Rights Act No. 9 of 2000. Sri Lanka belongs to South Asia where the percentage of elders is rapidly increasing. Therefore it is the duty of the Government to protect the rights of elders as well as to promote Social Welfare Services.
