BACKGROUND Colombo Plan The Colombo Plan for Cooperatve Economc and Socal Development n Asa and the Pacfc s a unque ntergovernmental organzaton provdng development assstance under the Plannng for Prosperty motto and the concept of self-help and mutual help where member countres provde assstance to one another n soco-economc development. The Colombo Plan was conceved at the Commonwealth Conference on Foregn Affars held n Colombo, Ceylon (now Sr Lanka) n January 950 and was establshed on July 95 as a cooperatve venture for economc and socal advancement of the people of South and Southeast Asa. t has grown from the foundng group of seven Commonwealth natons - Australa, Brtan, Canada, Ceylon, nda, New Zealand and Pakstan, to 26, ncludng non- Commonwealth and countres belongng to the Assocaton of South-East Asan Natons(ASEAN) and South Asan Assocaton for Regonal Cooperaton (SAARC). Current Colombo Plan member countres are Afghanstan, Australa, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Brune, Fj, nda, ndonesa, ran, Japan, Republc of Korea, Lao PDR, Malaysa, the Maldves, Mongola, Myanmar, Nepal, New Zealand, Pakstan, Papua New Gunea, the Phlppnes, Sngapore, Sr Lanka, Thaland, Unted States of Amerca and Vetnam. n December 977, the Colombo Plan for Cooperatve Economc Development n South and South-east Asa was changed to The Colombo Plan for Co-operatve Economc and Socal Development n Asa and the Pacfc, to reflect the expanded geographcal composton of ts enhanced membershp and the scope of ts actvtes. Through the 57 years of ts operaton, the prmary focus of all Colombo Plan actvtes remans human resource development of ts member countres. Over the years, the programme content of the Colombo Plan has been adjusted to respond to the needs of member countres n a fast changng economc envronment. n the early years, the tranng programmes were more of a longterm nature whlst the current programmes are establshed to provde advance sklls and experence sharng, amed at best practces n dfferent felds of economc and socal actvtes for effectve polcy makng and governance.

Fundng A sgnfcant characterstc of the Colombo Plan s that the admnstratve costs of the Councl and the Secretarat are borne equally by all member countres and all member countres have an equal status n Colombo Plan s functons and actvtes. However, programme actvtes are funded by voluntary contrbutons by member countres based on the phlosophy of self-help and mutual help. n addton, non-member countres, other nternatonal and regonal organsatons and other donor agences are also sourced for fundng. Current Programmes n 995, Colombo Plan restructured ts programmes to emphasze on three permanent short-term tranng courses n prorty areas and promotng South-South cooperaton. The current programmes of the Colombo Plan are n the areas of Publc Admnstraton and Envronment ncludng post-graduate long-term scholarshps, Prvate Sector Development and Drug Demand Preventon n member countres. n ths regard, Colombo Plan has establshed three programmes for capacty buldng, namely, Drug Advsory Programme, Programme for Publc Admnstraton & Envronment and Programme for Prvate Sector Development. Programme for Publc Admnstraton & Envronment (PPA & Env.) The man objectve of the Programme for Publc Admnstraton s to develop human captal n the publc sector of the developng member countres (DMCs) through provson of tranng programmes n prortzed areas such as poverty reducton, leadershp development, economc management, strategc management, food securty and envronmental ssues ncludng clmate change. The PPA has establshed good partnershps wth centres of excellence n the member countres as well as wth ntergovernmental organsatons to delver tranng programmes n crtcal ssues of development to mddle and senor level publc offcals from DMCs, many of whom hold key postons n ther respectve countres. n 2009, had 7 short-term tranng programmes for government offcals of the CPS member countres. A total of 6 partcpants were traned. For 200, PPA has scheduled 6 Tranng Programmes and total of 95 partcpants are

LONG-TERM SCHOLARSHP PROGRAMME (LTSP) The Long term Scholarshp Programme (LTSP), whch was the hallmark of the Colombo Plan durng ts early years of establshment, has been rentroduced n 2005 n response to the stated needs of member countres.

The LTSP programme provdes opportuntes for qualfed canddates from CPS member countres to pursue ther study at Masters degree level at prestgous unverstes n Korea, Malaysa, Sngapore and Thaland. n 2008, the LTSP recorded several new achevements.

Currently, the CPS s sponsorng one post graduate scholar from Nepal at the Sngapore Management Unversty. Secondly, the CPS had sgned a MOU wth Unversty Scence Malaysa (USM) and Unversty Putra Malaysa (UPM).

Programme for Prvate Sector Development (PPSD) The Programme for Prvate Sector Development (PPSD), establshed n 995, provdes short-term tranng programmes and workshops for the development of the prvate sector. The focus of PPSD s on capacty buldng of small and medum enterprses (SMEs), whch n many economes drve economc growth and create employment opportuntes for a large segment of the labour force. The Programme`s scope covers technology transfer, SME development, busness management and sharng of best practces, World Trade Organzaton, productvty and trade ssues and ndustralzaton polcy.
