13 WHAT HAPPENED IN SRI LANKA IN THE LAST TWO DECADES?????

20 Recognize the rights of people to location where they have been living Ensure equity amongst all PRINCIPLES Placing people at the center of decision making and action Creating social mobility by allowing people to exercise choices regarding where to live, how to use funds and how to source income Transparency in the utilization of all resources Planning to ensure mixed development across income groups, livelihood opportunities and commercial and service sector activities
