Going to the Ends of the Earth
Why Sri Lanka?
 |
In a country that is rich in beauty, heritage, culture and hospitality, it is sad to say that the most valuable treasure, its children are the most affected by tragedy. |
 |
There are five million children in Sri Lanka. Thousands were and continue to be orphaned because of Civil War, natural disasters (including the Tsunami tragedy) and family disputes. More than 1,000 children were used as soldiers in the Civil War. There are 2,000 street-living and street-working children in Colombo city, with 5,000 children at risk, and 2,500 outside Colombo with 5,000 at risk. There are 40,000 child prostitutes, and more than half are boys. There are more than 1.1 million children under 5 in Sri Lanka. 392,000 (35%) children are undernourished, meaning that they do not eat enough food on a daily basis. There are more than 250,000 unschooled children in Sri Lanka. |
