ISD Sri Lanka
January 11th 2009 -
Formed in 1991 by a group of People from the plantation community who were committed to the upliftment of their community. Each of these them had more than ten years experience in a range of fields including the trade union movement, politics, the sector and journalism. In part, the formation of ISD was stimulated by the global crisis of the 1980s that saw the collapse of the Soviet Union, further economic rationalism, increasing globalisation and the end of the Cold War. These changes to the international system required a re-evaluation of social development activities throughout the world
