Sri Lanka

Against the backdrop of Sri Lanka’s stabilising economy, Australia’s targeted and pragmatic assistance is supporting economic growth. Through targeted investments, Australia will continue to offer practical assistance and technical advice in support of key reform priorities.

Our program in Sri Lanka will build on our significant humanitarian response in 2022 by backing sustainable, flexible and locally led approaches to strengthening communities.

As the Sri Lankan economy recovers, Australia stands alongside it as a trusted partner of choice. We listen to each other and are working together on joint development solutions to support the growth of a strong, successful Sri Lanka. 

The Australia – Sri Lanka Development Partnership Plan 2025–2030 (DPP) translates into action the development priorities Australia shares with Sri Lanka. The DPP sets out agreed objectives, how we will work together to deliver shared outcomes, and how progress will be monitored. 

Our development cooperation factsheets outline our Official Development Assistance budget, strategic direction and program highlights.

This is the end of the program review of the Local Empowerment through Economic Development (LEED).
