At present Sri Lanka is experiencing an economic crisis. There is also a social discourse that change needs to be brought up by changing oneself. At this juncture, planners need to self-reflect on the possible contribution that they could make to the economic recovery process of the country: How can the planning work in different sectors be aligned with the macroeconomic policies and new drivers and values that are surfacing? How should the financing landscape be changed for development projects? What are the new adaptations of planning itself that can support the economy of Sri Lanka?
