What exactly is Town and Country Planning, and why is it the missing piece in solving Sri Lanka's biggest challenges?
In this inaugural episode of the UOM Town & Country Planning Podcast, we sit down with Prof. P.K.S. Mahanama to uncover the reality of spatial planning in Sri Lanka. From the colonial roots of our cities to the modern-day struggles of heritage conservation in Anuradhapura and Kandy, Prof. Mahanama breaks down why integrated planning is the absolute need of the hour. We also dive into deep socio-economic issues, exploring why Sri Lankan farmers remain trapped in poverty, the root causes of the human-elephant conflict, and why so many national physical plans fail at the implementation stage.
