Traditional Dance Sri Lanka

CPI was invited to Mahavilachiya, a village bordering the violent Tamil conflict. Though the violence had ceased, its traumatic effects on families and children were still visible. ChildsPlay International partnered with Nanda Waninaika, who runs a school and multidisciplinary collective, to reintroduce the children to play, creative activities, and games.
The program included drawing, painting, traditional singing and dancing, story-telling, and discovery of local folklore through village elders.CPI was invited to Mahavilachiya, a village bordering the violent Tamil conflict.
