Welcome

 A prawn fisherman walks back toward shore after setting his nets in a Karainagar lagoon in mid-February, 2004. He is one of an estimated 2,000-plus beneficiaries from a $35,000 USAID/OTI livelihoods support activity that has provided boats, engines, nets and other equipment to formerly displaced fisherfolk in this part of Jaffna. Most of these people were displaced during the fighting in Sri Lanka's 19-year conflict and have returned to their homes since the February, 2002, ceasefire. Photo: Gemunu Amarasinghe
