"குப்பைத் தொட்டிக்கு மட்டுமே பொருத்தமானது” என்று நிராகரித்த கல்விச் சீர்திருத்தங்களை தேசிய மக்கள் சக்தி அரசாங்கமும் அங்கீகரித்துள்ளது. மேலும் கல்விச் சீர்திருத்தத்தை நிபுணர்களிடம் விட்டுவிடுமாறு ஜனாதிபதி நாடாளுமன்ற உரையில் கேட்டுக்கொண்டது நிலைமையை மோசமாக்கும் வகையில் நிபுணர்களின் கொடுங்கோன்மையை எளிதில் தழுவுவதை அம்பலப்படுத்தியுள்ளது. maatram.org/articles/12319

Yes. #SriLanka's education system needs overhaul. No. The @NPPSLOfficial warmed-up proposals are not solutions to ongoing problems. Why squander precious political capital, asks Niyanthini Kadirgamar?

Isn’t it ironic that the comfort dogs, mindfulness and free cookie decorating events - the usual solution for every crisis situation in #US #HigherEd - have not been suggested yet to deal with the currently unfolding #apocalypse?

A two day women’s conference on #economicjustice was held in #Batticaloa Around 100 women from 8 districts participated. The focus was on the impact of the economic crisis in #srilanka on working women, women with disabilities and transwomen/lgbtqia+ communities.

This is heartbreaking 💔

Teachers should not be allowed to touch students. Hope violence of all forms amongst other things within #freeeducation will be addressed under the new government #srilanka
