We had the pleasure of welcoming a group of final year medical students from the University of Sri Jayawardenapura last week for their Community Exposure field practicum. Mr Udesh Fernando, Director SIHL, led an insightful discussion on Sarvodaya’s community development praxis followed by visits to Sarvodaya Units such as Suwasetha our care giving arm as well as the Sarvodaya Disaster Resilience Unit. The programme was concluded with a brief interaction with Dr. Vinya Ariyaratne followed by an insightful session at Vishva Niketan International Peace & Meditation Centre getting to know their mandate and community level spritiual awakening programmes.
