UNFPA Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka has made solid progress in improving the status, health and education of women following years of internal conflict and the lasting effects of the 2004 tsunami. It has seen dramatic reductions in maternal mortality, providing a model for other countries. Since 1969, UNFPA has partnered with Sri Lanka to improve access and availability of quality reproductive health services and information for women, men and young people.
