On 20 February 2026, the HOPE Organization team conducted a field visit to the Koralaipattu Division as part of the implementation process of the Cyclone Ditwah Emergency Response and Resilience Support in Sri Lanka project. The visit commenced with a coordination meeting with World Vision staff, during which a pre-planning discussion was held to align on upcoming project activities and ensure effective collaboration. Following this discussion, the team proceeded to the Divisional Secretariat, where at 10.00 AM they met with the Divisional Secretary (DS). During the meeting, the project was formally introduced, including its objectives, implementation plan, target beneficiaries, and selection criteria. The DS was comprehensively briefed on the planned field-level activities, and official permission was obtained to implement the project within the Koralaipattu Division.
