As part of the centenary celebrations, CCPSL produced two major publications looking both backward at a century of achievement and forward to the future of public health.
With the People, For the People: A Century of Care
The commemorative coffee table book drew on archival records, programme reports and oral histories to document Sri Lanka’s public health achievements, the work of its public health workforce and the contribution of communities and partnerships.
White Paper on the future of public health
The White Paper examined how Sri Lanka can preserve its strengths in prevention, equity, universal access and community-based services while responding to demographic, epidemiological, environmental, technological and financing challenges.
Priority areas included healthy ageing, non-communicable disease prevention, health security, climate and environmental health, workforce development, research, digital transformation, governance and sustainable financing.
