NPC’s new project, Mobilising University State Engagement for Reconciliation (MUSTER), aims to increase university students’ capacity to research, facilitating cooperation between academics and the state administration with a view to encouraging state entities to take informed decisions based on research.

Having chosen coordinators from the universities of Jaffna, Ruhuna, Sabaragamuwa and Eastern, an introductory meeting was held on zoom attended by the coordinators, NPC’s Executive Director Dr. Jehan Perera, the programme consultant and the NPC project staff.

Decisions were made regarding the selection criteria of the students, the activities that will be necessary and the best ways to proceed.
