Organization Mankind (Sweden) is a non-political organization founded in May 1997. It does not manage financial transactions directly. Instead, it partners with reputable and well-established charitable organizations, such as Lions Clubs International, Rotary International, or others of similar standing. These trusted partners handle all donations, contributions, and charitable distributions on behalf of Mankind (Sweden), ensuring full transparency and alignment with the donors’ intentions.

The silence of our ancestors became the fertile ground upon which opportunistic politicians sowed the seeds of racial discrimination. Let us not pass this poisoned legacy on to our children—let it end with us.

Project Mankind (Sweden) is deeply committed to ensuring that racism never takes root in Sri Lanka again. We stand for unity, justice, and the unwavering pursuit of a peaceful, inclusive society.

Today, there are 3,028 billionaires in the world. At Mankind (Sweden), we are in contact with several of them, along with influential business leaders, members of the Sri Lankan diaspora, and compassionate global well-wishers. United in purpose, we are ready to support Sri Lanka in its journey to overcome the current economic crisis and liberate itself from the weight of foreign debt.

However, this support is conditional. It is contingent upon the Sri Lankan government adopting and enacting the legislative bill proposed by Project Mankind (Sweden).  This bill includes essential reforms designed to build lasting peace, eliminate structural discrimination, and create a foundation for sustainable economic stability.

We call upon Sri Lanka’s leadership to seize this opportunity—for the sake of its people, its children, and its future.

 •                           Anti-Discrimination Law: Legislation should be introduced to prohibit discrimination based on language, religion, caste, region, or wealth. This would protect vulnerable groups from segregation and unfair treatment, fostering a more equitable society where all citizens have equal opportunities, regardless of their background.

 •                           Ban on Racism in Politics and Religion: Anyone who promotes racism should be barred from holding government positions or participating in politics for five years. Similarly, religious leaders who incite racial hatred should be prohibited from serving in their religious roles for the same period.

 •                           Criminalizing Racial Incitement: Publicly inciting racism should be classified as an act of terrorism, with those who support or facilitate such actions held accountable under the same legal framework.

 •                           Accountability for Law Enforcement: Law enforcement officers must be held accountable for failing to uphold their professional duties and protect citizens' rights. Strengthening accountability measures will help ensure ethical and fair practices, restore public trust in authorities, and contribute to a more just society.

 •                           Trilingual Official Communications: All government signs, posters, and informational materials should be displayed in Sinhala, Tamil, and English. Ensuring that essential information is accessible in all three languages would promote inclusivity and strengthen mutual understanding among diverse communities.

 •                           Bilingual National Anthem: Singing Sri Lanka’s national anthem in both Sinhala and Tamil would foster intergroup respect and understanding, reinforcing national unity and solidarity.

 By implementing these measures, Sri Lanka can work toward national reconciliation, economic recovery, and a brighter future for all its citizens.

Now, it falls upon the ruling government to take decisive action, leveraging its two-thirds majority in the Sri Lankan Parliament to transform this vision into reality. The opportunity to reshape the nation's future is within reach—what remains is the courage and commitment to act.

The Government of Sri Lanka has launched a project called Clean Sri Lanka, focused on environmental and national cleanliness. At Project Mankind (Sweden), we are working on a parallel mission—to clean the minds and hearts of all Sri Lankans. Our goal is to inspire forgiveness for the past, foster unity across all communities, and contribute to building a truly Clean Sri Lanka—inside and out.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 "Rebuilding a nation with a broken foundation" suggests that any attempt at national improvement will be fraught with difficulty and unlikely to endure if the above-mentioned issues are not properly addressed. It warns against the dangers of superficial reforms that overlook deep-rooted, systemic problems.

The phrase underscores the necessity of confronting a nation’s foundational flaws head-on. True progress requires learning from past failures and reinforcing the structural integrity of the system before any lasting development can take place.

Sri Lanka’s problems still exist; they’ve simply become less visible. The fire may no longer be raging, but the flame still burns beneath the surface. It’s time to extinguish it once and for all, for the sake of national unity and a prosperous future for all Sri Lankans.

Millions of Sri Lankans and members of the Sri Lankan diaspora live in Western countries where equality prevails, where people are not judged by their ethnicity or religion. Many have thrived in these societies; some have even been elected to parliaments and hold ministerial positions.

The best way to lay the past to rest and move the country forward is by encouraging the current government to implement the proposals put forward by Project Mankind (Sweden) in the Sri Lankan Parliament and to enshrine them in law for the benefit of all citizens.

We will collaborate closely with the Government of Sri Lanka through our Stockholm embassy and ensure that all project activities are discussed in advance.

By implementing the above request in the Sri Lankan Parliament and enacting it into law, the Sri Lankan government is taking a commendable step toward addressing historical injustices. Such action will undoubtedly be recognized and appreciated by the international democratic community. Furthermore, this progressive move may open the door to potential foreign debt relief or loan restructuring opportunities.

At the same time, this initiative stands as a powerful message in other countries to those who engage in racism and discrimination against minorities. It emphasizes the importance of abandoning divisive practices in favor of unity and equality—for the betterment of the country and the well-being of all its citizens. 

Sri Lanka’s infrastructure is rapidly advancing. Sri Lankan motorways are now on par with those in Europe, and shopping malls, commercial complexes are reaching international standards. However, despite these physical developments, the mindset of many Sri Lankans remains rooted in outdated divisions.

In contrast, European societies are built on a foundation of equality, where everyone is treated with respect, regardless of their background, religion, or language. This culture of inclusion is a major factor behind Europe’s continued success and social stability.

To truly progress as a nation, Sri Lanka must not only invest in modern infrastructure but also embrace these shared values. We urge the government to take meaningful action by introducing and passing policies through Parliament that promote equality, unity, and mutual respect.

Support us in this call for change. Together, we can build a better, more inclusive Sri Lanka for all.
