Inviting for a Round Table Dialogue on Tourism impact in KKS, Kuchcheveli,Pasikkudah and Kalpitiya

 We want to have sustainable fisheries in the country,
while tourism is one way of the benefit the coastal communities and not a
hindrance to their livelihoods, land and human rights as a whole. We need to
have a dialogue among all the parties engage in tourism and also responsible
the well being of coastal communities including fishing communities. We are
organizing a round table dialogue for this and we want to achieve through a
dialogue among policy makers, tourism bureaucrats, fisher folk, civil society
groups, investors, hoteliers etc.

Therefore, we are inviting you to take part in a round table
discussion with the fishermen, farmers, hoteliers, investors and civil society
groups in order to sort out and mitigate the issues on promoting tourism
industry through a dialogue. Our dialogue will be based on the research NAFSO conducted
in collaboration with Society for the Threatened People [STP], Switzerland.
