The document discusses a study that assessed university students' awareness of Sri Lanka's Right to Information Act (RIA). The study found that only 38% of students were aware of RIA, while 42% were unaware. It also examined students' knowledge of procedures for requesting information, response times, and provisions for rejected requests. Most students acknowledged the importance of human rights but admitted lacking knowledge of RIA. This suggests a gap between what students know and should know about their rights. The study concludes it is necessary to change bureaucratic cultures of secrecy and that educating students on their rights is our responsibility. It limits generalizing the findings beyond the studied group of students.
