Conifs Global, a leading IT services company with its head office in Sri Lanka, recently participated in a Mangrove Restoration Project to strengthen its Corporate Environment Responsibility (CER).
The company partnered with “Eco Escape”, a small venture, making a big impact towards the environment and the community in the surrounding area of the Keppu Ela River in Galle.
The Conifs team engaged in planting trees in various locations on site and further donated equipment towards the sustainability of the project. Prior to the main project, an educational program was conducted by Programme Assistant of the Ministry of Environment Dr. M. G. Manoj Prasanna, where he presented a comprehensive virtual lecture on the mangrove ecosystem and its importance.
Conifs Global CEO Indrajith Wijesiri said that the company has understood the vital role the private sector needs to play towards environmental conservation, in protecting its ecosystem. He said, “It isn’t only about understanding the importance of the mangrove restoration. Team engagement in such initiatives is key, as it encourages team members to appreciate nature and understand how team work can make a significant difference.”
