    • Democracy, good governance, and institution building.
    • Social justice.
    • Women's rights.
    • Pluralistic values.
    • Youth in social transformation.
    • Arts and culture to further the understanding of rights/peace.

    NTT is the only local grantmaker in Sri Lanka, where every other grantmaker is a bilateral or multilateral agency, an international NGO, or an intergovernmental organization.
