Abstract:
The wars seen in any angle is against to justice and it denies all human rights and thus became entirely unjustifiable. Sri Lankan ethnic conflict also lasted closely three decades and the country lost 1000s of lives without differentiating between Sinhala, Tamil or Muslim. The war not only resulted in the loss of lives, but also caused inestimable damage to the economy of the country.
People of all ethnic groups now not only hope for positive peace, security and but also are keen to ensure that there will be no more bloodshed again. So there should be an urgent need to social resilience and reconstructions.
The intention of this research was to evaluate the effectiveness of current strategies used to build social resilience and reconstruction in Mullaitivu district at Wellamullivykkal. It has been used both primary and secondary data. Primary data was collected through interviews with various individuals and sample was 34. It has been used simple random selection method to select the sample. Secondary data collection methods were magazines, books, Government and Non-government reports and web sites. It has been used both quantitative and qualitative data analysis methods. Primary data has been analyzed by quantitative analysis methods and secondary data has been analyzed by qualitative (narrative analysis) method.
The research findings proved that Sri Lanka is implementing a proper reconstruction process in the district. But social resilience is still at a questionable stage because there is no proper plan to address the root cause of the ethnic conflict.
