Post-War Sri Lanka: Roads to Reconciliation
Accroche

The Center for Asian Studies of the French Institute of International Relations (Ifri) organized on 9 December 2011 a round table discussion regarding the future of the ongoing reconciliation process in Sri Lanka, entitled ‘Post-War Sri Lanka: Roads to Reconciliation'.

Corps analyses

The meeting aimed to provide a space to openly discuss the problems and prospects of reconciliation in the island nation by gathering a panel of practitioners and experts on Sri Lanka as well as non-regional specialists with expert knowledge of other post-conflict situations. The objective was to bring about a constructive debate and generate ideas on what forms of reconciliation can be sought in Sri Lanka, as well as on the challenges and favorable elements of a future reconciliation process. The discussion began with presentations by a panel of experts from various fields who presented on different aspects of the current post-war situation in the country, followed by an open debate with a broader range of participants. The morning's discussions were placed under the Chatham House Rule to facilitate a free exchange of ideas.

Center for Asian Studies
Accroche centre

Asia is a nerve center for multiple global economic, political and security challenges. The Center for Asian Studies provides documented expertise and a platform for discussion on Asian issues to accompany decision makers and explain and contextualize developments in the region for the sake of a larger public dialogue.

The Center's research is organized along two major axes: relations between Asia's major powers and the rest of the world; and internal economic and social dynamics of Asian countries. The Center's research focuses primarily on China, Japan, India, Taiwan and the Indo-Pacific, but also covers Southeast Asia, the Korean peninsula and the Pacific Islands. 

The Centre for Asian Studies maintains close institutional links with counterpart research institutes in Europe and Asia, and its researchers regularly carry out fieldwork in the region.

The Center organizes closed-door roundtables, expert-level seminars and a number of public events, including an Annual Conference, that welcome experts from Asia, Europe and the United States. The work of Center’s researchers, as well as that of their partners, is regularly published in the Center’s electronic journal Asie.Visions.
