The National People’s Power coalition nominated Harini Amarasuriya (centre) to a seat in Sri Lanka’s parliament in 2020 and elevated her to prime minister in September 2024 - evidence of a conscious move by the NPP towards greater inclusion and representation of women.

Can Sri Lanka’s newly empowered NPP deliver a new dawn for women in politics?
