This compilation of stories is a tribute to the power of vision, partnership, and community empowerment. It captures not only the milestones of the CRIWMP, but also the spirit of the people and institutions who made it possible.

This publication was commissioned through the Green Climate Fund supported Climate Resilient Integrated Water Management Project (CRIWMP) for the specific purpose of documenting the human stories and lived experiences of beneficiaries over the seven-year implementation period of the project. The content is based on interviews conducted by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Sri Lanka and reflects the voices, perspectives, and changes observed in the
lives of individuals and communities impacted by CRIWMP.
