Ampara District Master Plan

Master Plan cover image
Handing over a copy of the Master Plan to the Government Agent (GA) for Ampara District, Mr. Sunil Kannangara.
The Master Plan was written with the assistance of the people of Ampara District and the levels of government that represent them. It is intended to be a framework, to guide the development of the district, allowing the residents to lead a more prosperous and sustainable lifestyle while respecting ethnicity, culture, religion, and gender. The plan should guide the investments of donor agencies, NGOs, and CBOs to bring about cohesive development rather than a piece meal or ad hoc collection of projects.

Objectives
The Master Plan is to be a guide, a living document, for the comprehensive development of the district carrying through a 20-25 year time frame. The following general objectives for the Master Plan were established by the Government of Sri Lanka. They are as follows:

  1. Improve socio-economic conditions while protecting the environment
  2. Restructure district economy in line with its resources
  3. Promote development of agriculture, fisheries, tourism, industry, and ports
  4. Enhance economic growth in rural areas
  5. Improve inter and intra district mobility
  6. Create an environment to attract private sector investment
  7. Enhance social harmony and equity
