The UNDP Team<br />

Our former Country Director Mr. Douglas Keh was instrumental in initiating the development of the 2nd NHDR.<br />

Mr. Neil Bhune, former Resident Representative, remained fully behind the team guiding them in defining the areas the<br />

NHDR should be focusing on, taking into account the country context. Dr. R.M.K. Ratnayaka, National Consultant,<br />

was responsible for conceptualizing and identifying possible areas that the NHDR would be addressing. We also<br />

thank Ms. Razina Bilgrami, Country Director a.i. for steering the team at all stages of the production of the <strong>Report</strong>.<br />
