Human-elephant conflict (HEC) has become a serious socio-economic and conservation problem in Sri Lanka.Sri Lanka had the highest annual elephant deaths and second highest human deaths, due to HEC. Male mortality was higher in both elephants and people. Conflict has greatly increased in intensity and geographic extent from that reported previously. The highest conflict has shifted from the Northwest to the East and North-Central areas, with the Northwest showing a decline in conflict. The changes in different areas were probably related to differences in management actions and developmental activity. Further increase in HEC is likely in the Eastern, North-Central and Northern regions.

Over 60 percent of households in the Northern Province are food insecure (46 percent moderately food insecure and 15 percent severely food insecure). This despite improvements among the returnee1 population in income and food security levels since October 2010. The trend and severity of food insecurity are particularly worrisome in Killinochchi. Low income levels and high food prices have led to weak purchasing power of households in the Northern and Eastern Provinces. As a result, there are signs of asset depletion, high indebtedness and adaptation of relatively serious coping behaviors, especially in the Northern Province. In Vavuniya and Jaffna, the level of need in the not recently returned population – a population not typically the focus of assistance – is of similar severity as the rcently returned population. The most substantial food assistance reduction is expected in Mullaitivu where the situation requires close monitoring in the near future.

“GDD Srilanka has a long presence in the North Central Province, focusing on the most vulnerable children, families and communities. Early Childhood Education and Care (ECCD) is one of the most important initiatives in ensuring a solid foundation to achieving a full education for the children of Sri Lanka. This partnership builds on the work already done and will help to ensure sustainability of the pre-school and other educational institutions in the province.
