In a country that is rich in
beauty, heritage, culture and hospitality, it is sad to say that
the most valuable treasure, its children are the most affected
by tragedy. |
 |
There are five million children in Sri Lanka. Thousands were and
continue to be orphaned because of Civil War, natural disasters
(including the Tsunami tragedy) and family disputes. More
than 1,000 children have been recruited as soldiers for the
Civil War. There are 2,000 street-living and street-working
children in Colombo city (with 5,000 children at risk) and 2,500
outside Colombo (with 5,000 at risk).There are 40,000 child prostitutes, and more than half are boys.
There are more than 1.1 million children under 5 in Sri Lanka.
392,000 (35%) children are undernourished, meaning that they do
not eat enough food on a daily basis. There are more than
250,000 unschooled children in Sri Lanka.
