We started research and development in climate and environmental analysis, computation, monitoring and prediction technologies in Sri Lanka with projects from 2000. Our work is oriented towards developing useable scientific and technological information for risk management in water resources, disasters, agriculture, energy, environment and public health. We collaborate with government institution, research institutes and universities. Our charter mandates us to develop local capabilities.
Our officers have engaged in projects for 14 years and have made significant contributions in climate and environmental diagnostic work, climate adaptation projects, science and technology development, and dissemination. Our projects are trans-disciplinary and collaborative with local and international institutions.
