The Office for National Unity and Reconciliation (ONUR) has built a strong link with the Department of Philosophy at the University of Kelaniya by introducing peace education and reconciliation programs within the academic setting. Through initiatives such as the Peace Hub Project, ONUR collaborates with the department to engage students in dialogue, critical reflection, and activities that promote unity across diverse communities. This partnership highlights the practical role of philosophy in addressing real-world challenges, as students are encouraged to apply ethical reasoning and conflict resolution skills to issues of national importance. By combining ONUR’s mission of fostering reconciliation with the department’s academic expertise, the collaboration creates a meaningful platform for nurturing future leaders who value justice, empathy, and social harmony.
