Welcome to Navajeevana!
Navajeevana, meaning “new
life”, is a non-governmental
organisation based in the Hambantota district of southern Sri Lanka.
We have been working to rehabilitate people with
disabilities in
southern Sri Lanka for over twenty years. Our vision is to see people
with disabilities as equal and participating members of a
non-discriminatory society.
We provide a holistic service for people with disabilities and work
with the “whole” person—from early identification, intervention,
treatment and full rehabilitation, where the person is able to earn an
independent income.
At our fully accessible rehabilitation centre in Tangalla we provide a
range of paramedical services, including physiotherapy, prosthetics and
orthotics, speech therapy, supportive seating, wheelchair production,
audiological services and physiotherapy. We also run four special
schools for disabled children, carry out community mental heath work
and work in and with the community to rehabilitate people with
disabilities.
In Sri Lanka? Why
not visit our new coffee
and craft shop where you can
find out more
about Navajeevana, sample some traditional refreshments and browse our
handicrafts?
