Who we are

Greenpeace as an environmental movement in Sri Lanka & South Asia

Greenpeace South Asia, rooted with its regional office in Colombo, works in the frontlines to safeguard Sri Lanka’s rich marine biodiversity, fragile ecosystems, and local communities from the disproportionate impacts of the climate crisis. Our campaigns focus on climate justice, reimagining better cities, plastic reduction, and robust protections for the Indian Ocean. We work hand-in-hand with local fishers, farmers, youth, and the civil society to build a sustainable and resilient future for the island home.

Our local campaigns in Sri Lanka are part of a wider international movement made up of 26 independent national and regional Greenpeace organisations, supported and coordinated globally by Greenpeace International, based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

The issues we work on

Imagine a world where forests flourish and oceans are full of life. Where energy is as clean as a mountain stream. Where everyone has security, dignity and joy. We can’t build this future alone, but we can build it together.
