With support from the United States Embassy and the USAID CORE Justice Program, on 13th May 2021, the Attorney General’s Department inaugurated a state-of-the-art training center and launched an electronic system to track cases and legal files. These tools will strengthen the ability of justice sector professionals to uphold the rule of law in Sri Lanka.
The event was attended in person by Attorney General Dappula De Livera P.C., Supreme Court Judge Justice Yasantha Kodagoda P.C., Acting Solicitor General Sanjay Rajaratnam P.C., the Secretary of the Ministry of Justice M.M.P.K. Mayadunne, and virtually by Deputy Chief of Mission (DCM) Kelly and USAID Mission Director Reed Aeschliman.
The event featured the launch of the U.S.-supported training facility, electronic diary and file management system, and the Attorney General’s Department website.
As perfectly encapsulated by the Hon. Attorney General, the opening of the training center is a notable, salutary achievement that meets a long-felt need for continuous learning and professional development.
The center will also reportedly include offices for onboarding and recruitment training, continuing legal education, professional and career development, and research and policy.
