Colombo, Nov. 1 (Daily Mirror) - An online platform aimed at bringing non-governmental organisations (NGOs) across Sri Lanka together has been launched by Save a Life, providing opportunities for networking, funding, partnerships and knowledge-sharing.
Named Sri Lanka NGO Community, the platform is designed to help NGOs connect with one another, identify funding opportunities, find project partners and share experiences and resources.
The initiative seeks to address challenges faced by NGOs in finding suitable partners, accessing funding information and exchanging knowledge, which often require considerable time and effort.
A directory of member organisations is among the platform's key features, allowing NGOs to identify other organisations working in the sector and explore opportunities for collaboration.
It also provides access to information on grants and funding opportunities, helping organisations identify potential financial support for their programmes and activities.
NGOs can also search for project partners and respond privately to partnership requests, creating opportunities to combine their expertise, skills and community networks for joint projects.
The platform further facilitates peer learning through community discussions, where members can exchange practical knowledge, share experiences and discuss challenges faced in their work.
In addition, it offers information on events and training programmes, including workshops and learning sessions. Members can also access shared resources such as templates, guides and reports relevant to the NGO sector.
Save a Life said the initiative aims to build a more connected NGO community in Sri Lanka, enabling organisations to learn from one another and strengthen their work through cooperation.
Organisations interested in joining the community can visit www.slngoc.lk and apply for membership.
