How NSBM contributes

NSBM's core contribution to SDG 4 is its provision of higher education combined with practical, industry-oriented and experiential learning. The university provides modern lecture halls, computer laboratories, libraries, specialised laboratories and digital learning facilities, while its programmes incorporate research, professional development and industry exposure. NSBM also extends educational opportunities beyond its campus through school outreach initiatives. For example, Haritha Sahurda Yathra 2025 enriched the library of Damseth Maha Vidyalaya with books and educational materials, while the Green School Project at Pitipana Junior School provided plants, compost bins, waste bins and other resources while creating an environmental learning experience for schoolchildren.

Project

Haritha Sisu Saviya – Empowering Education

1 August 2025 Dampe Primary School Student-led initiative

This student-led initiative was carried out with the goal of uplifting SDG 04 – Quality Education by bridging the digital and resource divide in rural schools.

The project focused on enhancing learning environments and supporting equitable access to education through the donation of essential ICT tools, printing supplies, and sanitation materials.

Key contributions included the donation of pen drives, wireless mice, microphones, and extension cords, along with the provision of toner, color cartridges, A4 papers, stationery, and cleaning items. These efforts empowered students and teachers with the resources needed to facilitate effective learning, promote digital literacy, and create a cleaner, more supportive educational environment.
