This 2010 report, Valuation of
Environmental Services in Sri Lanka : A Case Study of Soil
and Watershed Benefits in the Southern Province, uses
valuation tools to evaluate environmental services to allow
policymakers to efficiently address sustainable economic
development and environment protection within the country s
economic policy. The Government of Sri Lanka has committed
to a 10-year development framework of increased growth and
policymakers in the Southern Province have embarked on an
ambitious program of improved roads and other large
infrastructure projects. Watershed management is perhaps the
most significant issue since they supply such a wide variety
of environmental services to the population and environment.
Due to the numerous beneficial flows it is difficult to
visualize any development that would not affect any of these
values to some degree.
