The Prime Minister of Sri Lanka with Ms Simi Kamal, Chair of International Water Management Institute (IWMI), on the occasion of IWMI’s 40-year celebration in Colombo
A special commemorative stamp was issued by the Sri Lanka Post to celebrate IWMI’s 40th anniversary, and four decades of partnership with Sri Lanka. The Prime Minister, Dinesh Gunawardena, visited IWMI’s global headquarters in Colombo and received the first stamp.
Since 1984, IWMI has contributed to shaping water management practices in Sri Lanka and the world. In the last 40 years, IWMI has grown in scale, impact, and areas of research – from an institute focused on water for agriculture to a global leader in water management. Looking forward, IWMI will continue to contribute to Sri Lanka’s water security and climate goals.
