dc.descriptionThe Government of Sri Lanka, with UN FAO assistance, is submitting a proposal (separate document) to the global initiative called the Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System or GIAHS for the declaration of the Cascaded Tank-Village System of CTVS as part of the GIAHS. The CTVS in the Palugaswewa Divisional Secretariat Division of Anuradhapura District in the Cultural Triangle Region of Sri Lanka will represent the CTVS of Sri Lanka in this declaration. The said proposal describes how the CTVS meets the 5 criteria to be declared as GIAHs namely: a) being a provider for food and livelihood security; b) high in biodiversity, particularly agro biodiversity; c) high in local knowledge; d) presence of supportive socio-cultural system; and e) presence of a remarkable landscape. Figure 1 below illustrates the 3 dimensions of the CTVS. Conventionally, the first dimension (The Tank and Engineering system) is more well-known in the public eye while the other dimensions are practically con sidered “invisible”.
