CCPSL continued the Research Grant and Academic Excellence Award programme to strengthen postgraduate training in Community Medicine.
During the 2025/2026 council year, 11 MD trainees and six MSc trainees received scholarships. Merit-based allocations were LKR 150,000 for MD trainees and LKR 50,000 for MSc trainees, with second instalments awarded to trainees who completed their research projects.
CCPSL also worked with the Board of Study in Community Medicine to strengthen postgraduate training and research and to align training with national public health priorities.
