									<p>A focused workshop on the UI GreenMetric World University Rankings was held on 19th December 2024 at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Open University of Sri Lanka (OUSL). The session, conducted by Dr. Yohan Mahagamage from the Centre for Environmental Studies and Sustainable Development (CESSD), provided an insightful introduction to the UI GreenMetric Rankings—a global system that evaluates universities based on six key sustainability categories: Infrastructure, Energy and Climate Change, Waste, Water, Transportation, and Education &amp; Research. Focusing on practical strategies to improve OUSL’s environmental performance and position in green university rankings, the workshop encouraged participants to take meaningful action. Guided by the theme “Small Actions Today Lead to a Greener Future,” the event inspired faculty members to embrace sustainable practices and actively contribute to building a greener, more eco-conscious campus.</p>								</div>

									<p>The Pre-Conference Workshop organized by the Centre for Environmental Studies and Sustainable Development (CESSD), in association with the International Research Conference (IRC) of the Open University of Sri Lanka, was successfully held on the 5th and 6th of November 2024. The two-day event featured a lecture series on November 5th, followed by a field visit to the Kadolkale Mangrove Forest in Negombo on November 6th. Themed <i>&#8220;Reviving Coastal Ecosystems: Taxonomy, Threats, Conservation Strategies &amp; GIS/Remote Sensing Applications,&#8221;</i> the lecture series was delivered by distinguished experts including Prof. K.Kandasamy (Annamalai University), India, Prof. Sewwandi Jayakody (Wayamba University of Sri Lanka), Dr. Manoj Prasanna (Biodiversity Secretariat, Ministry of Environment, Sri Lanka), and Dr. Buddika Madurapperuma (The Open University of Sri Lanka). With strong participation from academics, researchers, and students—both in person and via online platforms—the workshop fostered valuable knowledge exchange and highlighted the critical importance of conserving coastal ecosystems through science-based strategies and technological tools. </p>								</div>
