Sri Lanka’s estate sector community is likely to receive significant multinational support, with the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) looking to extend its assistance to improve the social and economic conditions of the estate communities.
In a recent notice published in the media, the agency announced plans to carry out a survey to assess the current status of the management and living conditions of the estate workers.
“Currently, we are seeking for a consultant/consulting firm for a data collection survey for improving the social and economic status of the estate community in Sri Lanka for considering the JICA’s future activities in the estate sector,” the notice stated.
The survey will focus on evaluating the business models of the existing estate management types, including the Regional Plantation Companies, Janatha Estate Development Board, Sri Lanka State Plantations Corporation and smallholders.
