Introduction
Gaveshana is the only tri-lingual research magazine published in Sri Lanka. It is exclusively dedicated to promoting research among students and the wider general public. Our main focus is on Advanced Level (A/L) & university students, along with academics around the country. Through the Gaveshana magazine we educate, enhance knowledge about research, and encourage everyone get involved in research.
We provide A/L students with the opportunity to publish their A/L projects in the Gaveshana magazine. The projects are then critically reviewed by relevant professionals to help students produce effective projects in the future. In addition, we also encourage articles on local and expatriate Sri Lankan professionals to highlight their contributions and experiences in the field of science. Articles about local inventors have always been highly appreciated as they draw attention to lesser known inventors, who are then able to express their talents to the public through the Gaveshana magazine.
The Gaveshana magazine is available at many universities, schools, Sarasavi bookshops, super markets and newspaper stalls Island wide.
Our First Steps
This journey began over a decade ago, with only one source of strength and inspiration; the absolute and clear conviction, that our journey to achieve success was for the greater good of all Sri Lankans. Our magazine did not set out to claim ownership nor create boundaries for knowledge. It was initiated to share, enhance and nourish knowledge through mutual effort. We were are determined to generate knowledge through research, and disseminate it amongst the different social sectors in Sri Lanka. The Gaveshana teams views this as an essential component in the development of our country.
Team Building
On this conscientious journey, we have been constantly looking for individuals and groups who think ‘out of the box’ for ways to create new knowledge, and ways of beneficial investments. We started as the minority but firmly believe that we are not the minority anymore. Through more than a decade of hard work, we have managed to bring many individuals and groups under this ‘progressive’ umbrella of thinking.
