Buddhist Rights Commission: technology, communication and public service

Cover of the All Ceylon Buddhist Congress Buddhist Rights Commission report

A nationally important commission

The All Ceylon Buddhist Congress established the Buddhist Rights Commission on Poson Poya Day in 2018. Its inquiry covered state governance, education, the economy, health, law and administration, culture, language and literature, together with technology, scientific method, communication and new media.

Harsha served as a Buddhist Rights Commissioner from 2018 to 2021. Harsha’s own record identifies him as the author of the Commission report’s technology section, bringing experience in public digital infrastructure, local-language computing, access to information and institutional systems into the Commission’s recommendations.

Continuing service through technology

From 2021 Harsha continued this public service as Chairman of the ACBC Technology Committee, supporting responsible technology for communication, preservation, administration and wider access to Buddhist knowledge. The work includes the Congress’s digital institutional development and its public website.

Attribution note: ACBC’s official material confirms the Commission, the report and its dedicated technology/scientific-method/communication/new-media subject area. Authorship of that section is recorded here from Harsha’s firsthand account.
