The SPACE Project – Community Governance Programme focused on strengthening community-level governance structures known as “Praja Mandala” across multiple provinces in Sri Lanka.
Implemented by Chrysalis with funding from CARE USA and the OAK Foundation, the project aimed to deepen citizen participation, accountability, and inclusive decision-making at the local level. By strengthening these grassroots governance platforms, SPACE laid the foundation for stronger community leadership and sustainable local development.
The primary beneficiaries included community leaders, grassroots groups, and local residents who gained stronger platforms to voice concerns, participate in governance, and influence local development priorities in their areas.
This project was made possible through the generous support of our donors, whose contributions played a vital role in planning, implementation, and successful delivery. Their commitment to social impact and sustainable development helped drive meaningful change and ensured that the project objectives were achieved for the benefit of the communities involved.
Chrysalis works with women and youth for the inclusive growth of Sri Lanka. Stay connected to get updates on our process of building an equitable world for all of us.
