3.1 Case study: Sri Lanka
CARE has been working with environmental NGOs on improving the link between disasters and sustainable environmental management. Following the 2004 South East Asian tsunami, the World Conservation Union seconded an individual to CARE recovery operations in Sri Lanka to provide an environmental oversight to these efforts. CARE has recently signed a memorandum of understanding with the World Conservation Union branch working in South Asia, which includes cooperation on disaster relief and recovery activities.
