The Forgotten Gems of Sri Lanka- The Upcountry Tamils

The upcountry/plantation Tamils have always been a deprived community besides contributing to the economy of Sri Lanka.
*This is a community that has failed to attract the attention of the Govt or NGO’s unlike the North or East. There needs were never sincerely looked into historically*.
LCH strives to look at vulnerable areas where true hardship prevails.

Currently, whilst the lock down and curfew continues in several parts of Sri Lanka there are several areas in upcountry where hunger prevails amongst these Tamils who live from hand to mouth as they rely on daily wages.

Matale, a popular town is also a major district in Upcountry. It encompasses several estates where the workers are predominantly Tamils.

Matale, is popularly known by the Tamils for the well-known Amman Temple. Its a shame that not many try to look into the hardship of the Tamils in the surrounding areas.

The geographical location makes logistics difficult for food distribution during this period.

LCH is proud to address such an issue during COVID19.

We jointly seek everyone’s support to address this humanitarian need urgently.

The coronavirus lockdown has comfortably cooped most of us at home. However, at the other end of the spectrum, majority of Tamils in Muthur District, Sri lanka are struggling to make ends meet. These include marginalised communities in the unorganised sector, such as daily wage earner, street vendors, construction workers, and laborers, who are terribly affected by the economic and social repercussions of the coronavirus.

Virutcham Trust (UK) , Lotus Caring Hands and Sivanarul Foundation charities are jointly working to support the Coronavirus outbreak in Sri Lanka/Muthur district by donating essential food items for currently over 500 families.

This project aims to introduce and promote tailoring practices through the provision of skills training and practical experience for 25 female war victims. Through tailoring activities, the targeted women will increase their income and enable food security for their families.

Direct beneficiaries of this program will be 25 women, and in particular, widows.

The objectives of this QIP are:

• To improve the access to livelihoods and the living standards of the targeted community;
• To develop the professional skills of 25 vulnerable women in tailoring in order to increase their income and contribute to the food security of their families;
• To Increase the household monthly income of female headed families;
• To facilitate community involvement and promote collective actions;
• To create employment opportunities.

Implementation and Monitoring Mechanisms

NAHRO will implement the project in coordination and collaboration with the respective Government and Non-governmental organizations such as NAITA, RDO, DS and GS etc. NAITA and NAHRO will monitor the activities throughout the project period. NAHRO will submit the post completion report three months from the date of completion.

Sustainability:

The training program will provide the selected women with enough skills to continue tailoring independently. They will be enabled to work as tailors continuously and NAHRO will facilitate their start-up providing technical assistance whenever needed. In these areas there is high demand for tailors especially when it comes to school uniforms and ladies clothing, therefore women will not face any difficulties in marketing their products.

In addition to this, a number of previous beneficiaries of similar training programmes have attained permanent positions at garment factories. Therefore, this programme can open up future job prospects and a stable source of income.
