Under the theme “Youth Action for Crisis Response,” Youth Camps have commenced in areas affected by Cyclone Ditwah in 2025. This initiative aims to support and motivate young people impacted by displacement and disruption, while equipping them with knowledge, skills, and leadership opportunities in key areas of development.

The camps create safe, interactive spaces for learning, dialogue, and collaboration, encouraging participants to become informed advocates and active contributors within their communities.

Pictured are highlights from the first session held today at the National Youth Services Council- Ulapane Training Center, Gampola. Resource person was Dr. D. Wimalachandra, MOH - Nawalapitiya.

A series of additional camps are planned under this initiative and will be conducted in Kandy, Baddulla and Nuwara Eliya Districts.
