Documentary abstract — original language
The history of Colombo’s wetlands spans thousands of years and is tied to river deltas, historical kingdoms and colonial rule. This project seeks to uncover years of human–wetland interactions by bringing together environmental historians, heritage scholars, artists, ecologists, hydrologists and social scientists. Through archival research, historical mapping and participatory creative workshops, the project will work with local communities to document the stories, memories and cultural heritage embedded in Colombo's wetlands. By reconnecting people with the history and significance of these landscapes, the project aims to inspire more inclusive and participatory wetland management. It will demonstrate how cultural heritage and local knowledge can complement scientific understanding to support better decision-making and strengthen community stewardship.
