Welcome to the Maps and Stats page, the latest addition to the Poverty Portal. The Maps and Stats section features a range of data resources on Sri Lanka and its regions using state generated and CEPA data.
This component intends to meet the data needs of users in Sri Lanka and outside of the country. It aims to contribute to improving data availability on Sri Lanka and use of data for informed decision making in the country. The site has a range of resources including maps, graphical presentations and data tabulations and handbooks.
This part of the Portal is work in progress and initially includes data on two provinces in Sri Lanka; Sabaragamuwa and Uva provinces but will also include data and graphical presentations from the Eastern province in 2011. In addition it includes micro data on urban poverty and multidimensional poverty themes using CEPA's own work. We intend to focus on one province and selected content themes per year for data collation, processing and presentation.
Users are welcome to use the information appropriately sourced/cited to the Poverty Portal and various data sources.
If you are unable to access a link or find the data you are looking for please do not be disappointed. Send us a request and we will try our best to accommodate your needs.

The data is for each GN division in the Pelmadulla Divisional Secretariat (DS) division for the year 2008. Data is not available for Ganegama. In 2008, again there is a change in the structure of the occupational distribution, the main source of employment shifting to the private sector again and self employment becoming the second most important source. There is also a drastic increase in government sector employment though it remains the third biggest source of employment.

This map contrasts the employed populations in each of the four main occupational categories: government sector employment, private sector employment, self employment and foreign employment. The data is for each GN division in the Pelmadulla Divisional Secretariat (DS) division for the year 2007. Data for Denawaka Pathakada, Godagama, Ihala Bopitiya, Ihala Hakamuwa, Pelmadulla Town and Welimaluwa is not available. The occupational distribution has changed from 2006 with self employment becoming the main source of employment in the DS division followed by private sector employment and government sector employment. However, the numbers have increased in all four categories for the DS division. Even though self employment is now the main source of employment for the DS division, it is the main source of employment in only 11 GN divisions. This is primarily because of the More...
This map contrasts the employed populations in each of the four main occupational categories: government sector employment, private sector employment, self employment and foreign employment. The data is for each GN division in the Pelmadulla Divisional Secretariat (DS) division for the year 2006. The main source of employment in the DS division is the private sector and is the main source of employment in 17 of the 37 GN divisions. Halpawala is the only GN division to have more than 300 private sector employees recording 304. Seven other GN divisions have more than 100 persons employed in this sector. By contrast, there are no private sector employees in Denawaka Pathakada and Kattange and less than 10 in six other GN divisions. This explains the range of 304, which is the largest among the four categories. Government sector employment is the second main source of emp More...

However, it is still the main source of employment in 15 of the 20 GN divisions. Only four of the GN divisions have less than 100 agricultural employees, and Hattella Egoda records the lowest of 77.
