At the recently held inauguration of the South Asia Sustainability & Security Research Institute (SASSRI), three landmark Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) were signed with prominent regional organizations.

The agreements were formalized with Strategic Research and Growth Foundation (India), Synergia Foundation (India), and The Maldives Policy Think Tank, marking a new era of cross-border collaboration on sustainability and security.

The MoUs will serve as frameworks for advancing knowledge-sharing, joint research, and capacity-building initiatives. Each partner brings unique expertise—from policy development to maritime security and economic sustainability—ensuring SASSRI is positioned as a regional hub of thought leadership.

“These agreements represent more than documents. They are commitments to shared progress, resilience, and collective action for South Asia’s future,” said SASSRI Board Director, Mr. Dinuk Hettiarachchi, following the signing ceremony
