Our Legacy & Story

For over five decades, the Centre for Society and Religion (CSR) has stood as a beacon of hope and a catalyst for social transformation in Sri Lanka. We believe that true peace and national harmony can only be achieved through fundamental reforms of socio-economic relations and structures.

Born out of a deep conviction to meet the urgent needs and legitimate aspirations of the masses, we work tirelessly to empower marginalized communities. From human rights advocacy to grassroots skill development, CSR is deeply embedded in the fabric of Sri Lankan society.
