Community Based Biodiversity Conservation- Tree Planting on Deduru Oya Left BankPabasara Gunawardane
Community based biodiversity conservation is a specific branch of conservation. Regulating bodies get together with the community based organizations and perform the projects. Mainly Department of wildlife conservation, Department of forest conservation and several non-governmental organizations conduct these programs.
Deduru Oya development project is the largest irrigation project carried out in the north western province of Sri Lanka. In this project, Deduru oya environmental conservation and soil erosion prevention project was a community based tree re-planting program on the left bank of the canal. The project was organized and performed by wildlife and nature protection society (WLNPS) of Sri Lanka. Department of irrigation, School children, resident villagers and divisional secretaries were the target social groups of this project.
The project was designed and planned for 3 years. (2011- 2013) Required financial support was provided by WLNPS and the work force was provided by the school children and the irrigation department. Due to heavy drought condition which affect the plant nursery and some activities of the department of irrigations caused severe damage to the success of the project.
Lack of coordination among the participatory groups, negligence of the government institutes, lack of the experiences of the project coordinators were some of the reason s for the failure of the project.
Recruiting project coordinators with science background, having enough data on the climate and the demography of the area, Emphasizing the importance of the objectives to general public and providing more benefits to the participating communities can be indicated as recommendations for the success of these kind of community based multi stake holder projects.
Private sector participation in commercial forest plantation development in S...Pabasara Gunawardane
This document discusses private sector participation in commercial forest plantation development in Sri Lanka. It provides background on the history of forest management in Sri Lanka, initially led by the Forest Department beginning in 1887. Private sector involvement began in the 1980s but was unsuccessful until being encouraged again in the 2000s. Over 4000 hectares of land have been leased to private entities for forest planting. Benefits of private sector participation include promoting forestry as a business and improving management. However, issues include potential land rights problems and inability to consider all environmental and social impacts. The document recommends establishing oversight of private entities and providing incentives to investors to support further development of forest plantations through private sector involvement in Sri Lanka.
Insect management is a key requirement in the commercial forest practices. In this presentation few insect management practices are discussed with special reference to Eucalyptus, Tectona and SMahogany species. These species are common in the plantation industry in Sri lanka
This report provides a summary and analysis of global Sukuk issuances in 2015. Some key findings include:
- Global Sukuk issuances declined 40% year-over-year to $61 billion in 2015, largely due to Malaysia discontinuing short-term Sukuk issuances.
- Sovereign, quasi-sovereign and corporate Sukuk issuances from other regions grew steadily, with longer tenors up to 30 years issued.
- New jurisdictions continue to open up to Islamic finance and issue Sukuk, while established markets expand issuances.
- 84% of the $321 billion in outstanding Sukuk belong to Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE,

Kalu river basin is the 2nd largest river basin in Sri Lanka which covers 2766km2 of land. Much of the catchment area of the river is located in the highest rainfall area in the country. The average annual rainfall of the area is around 4000mm. The basin has steep gradient in upper part of the land and mild gradient in lower areas.The lower flood plains suffer from frequent floods during south-western monsoon season. The lower areas are densely populated and the land is a potential area for paddy cultivation.
Kalu river basin is a highest vulnerable location for floods. Frequent flooding along the Kalu Ganga is a common phenomenon that people live around the banks of Kalu Ganga and its tributaries experience every year.
The floods occur basically due to the high amount of rainfall in the catchment area and due to the gradient differences of the river. The gradient is very low in downstream of Rathnapura to upper stream of Kalutara town. This low gradient is inadequate to provide the sufficient velocity for the water to move downstream. The narrow gap or the bottleneck in Ellagawa area of the river retains the water for several days in the Ratnapura District before it releases to Kalutara District. Heavy extraction of river sand and the lack of proper constructions of infrastructures are also major causes for floods in Kalu river basin.
Program for Hydro-Meteorological Disaster Mitigation for Secondary Cities in South and South East Asia (PROMISE) recognized Kalutara as a secondary city that suffers annually due to floods and designed program to suit the needs of the city. Hazard mapping and vulnerability assessment, Kalu Ganga river flood forecasting and warning system, Demonstration activities as a measure for disaster preparedness and mitigation, Micro credit scheme as a measure of mitigation of flood impacts on the livelihood of urban poor, Activities to build the community awareness on flood risk management are some mitigation methods for floods.
Educating people more about the floods, having a proper flood alert system & Meteorological alert system, building a series of levees to prevent flood water spilling into low lying areas building a bypass canal which will take surplus water around Ratnapura town back to the river preventing the town from getting flooded, building a reservoir at Malwala several kilometers upstream from the town, Diversion of Kalu Ganga to Ruhuna, Having proper technological construction systems are some recommendations which can be dispensed for the current situation of floods in Kalu river basin.
Healthy ecosystems provide a variety of such critical goods and services. Created by the interactions of living organisms with their environment, these “ecosystem services” provide both the conditions and processes that sustain human life. The awareness of ecosystem services’ importance in human life styles started more than 2500 years ago. Economists have developed different ways to measure the economic value of the nature, all of which required extrapolation or assumptions.
Ignorance, Institutions and Market Failure are the main reasons to the under-protected status of Ecosystem Services. The environment provides critically important services. Some of these are captured by markets, but many are not. They are positive externalities that are therefore regarded by the beneficiaries as free. As a result, many ecosystem services tend to be both under-conserved and undervalued. If beneficiaries had to pay for explicit service provision, however, governments would think differently about their policies and property owners would think very differently about sustainable land management practices. In basic economic terms, payments for ecosystem services (PES) seek to “get the incentives right” by capturing the positive externalities, by providing accurate signals to both service providers and users that reflect the real social benefits that ecosystem services deliver.
Voluntary agreements between buyers and sellers of ecosystem services for cash or other rewards creating markets for ecosystem services which provide incentives and finance to land and resource managers and thereby strengthening conservation and livelihoods are called as PES.
Wide range of potential buyers and sellers are available depending on the ecosystem service. When the market fails to reward on-site ecosystem service providers, or to compensate them for their costs (e.g. changing land use) charge off-site users for the benefits they enjoy (e.g. clean water) PES create a market for natural resources making conservation a more profitable land-use proposition. Information, technical barriers, policy and regulation and institutional barriers are the major challenges in implementing PES.
Creating economic incentives that encourage PES schemes, including environmental taxes and subsidies, transferable discharge permits and environmental labelling, developing specific PES projects with farmers, foresters and/or fisher folks in their region, or their watershed and providing incentives for the private sector to engage in PES schemes are some recommendations for a better PES system.
