Through this center I was able to learn about the importance of peace and reconciliation. I have had the privilege of meeting people from different ethnicities and religions for which I am really thankful to SLU for.

I was a racist, I believed in violence to fight against injustices, but today I believe in non-violence, unity and reconciliation and I know I can accomplish more than my parents generation.

Center Manager – Mullaitivu Reconciliation Center

Akila Hettiarachchi
Until I joined SLU I never had a friend from the Tamil community. I used to think every Tamil was a terrorist but today I know so many Tamils who are like my own family. I aspire to be a leader who will not just serve the south but stand up and speak for our brothers and sisters in the north as well.
