SAPSRI is a non profit non government organisation committed to building a Sri Lanka free from injustice and poverty. We work with the most marginalised people, particularly women. We build their capacity and self reliance so they become active partners in the development process.

We do this in a number of ways. We build a more organised, stable civil society.  We help organise people into village-based organisations that then become catalysts for change. We encourage active citizenship and effective institutions. We connect people with the institutions that govern their lives, so they can work together to build a future free from poverty and injustice. We help people earn a living. We have supported thousands of poor people to build small businesses, boosting their income and their social status. We improve their living conditions. For example we help people to build or renovate their houses.
