Sri lanka: Sri Lanka is set to host the internationally recognised ‘Walk for Peace’ pilgrimage from April 21 to 28, 2026, led by the Most Venerable Paññakara Thera along with a delegation of twelve Buddhist monks.

The programme is being conducted with the support of the Government’s Clean Sri Lanka initiative. The event will culminate in a State Ceremony and a cultural exhibition in Colombo, where Sri Lanka’s rich Buddhist heritage and traditional crafts will be showcased to both local and international audiences.
