In profound sorrow, we announce the passing away of Dr A.T. Ariyaratne, the Founder and the Emeritus President of the Sarvodaya Movement, peacefully this evening.
In due course, comprehensive details concerning the funeral arrangements will be provided.

@OceanswellOrg@Greenpeace The @OceanswellOrg team! I started as a deckhand and the only Sri Lankan aboard the R/V Odyssey expedition in 2003 and today I’m the lead scientist and was able to bring aboard 5 of my students on board. @Greenpeace SouthAsia
