Colombo Plan
Also known as the Colombo Plan, it is an economic cooperation organization whose establishment was decided at the Commonwealth Foreign Ministers' Conference held in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) in January 1950. Its original purpose was to provide financial and technical assistance to developing countries in the region (South Asia and Southeast Asia) and promote their economic development within the framework of the Commonwealth, based on financial contributions from developed countries in the region. Its organizational structure consists of the highest decision-making body, the Consultative Committee (which holds an annual meeting), its subordinate body, the Technical Cooperation Council (which implements aid plans and meets every 2-3 months by representatives of each country stationed in Sri Lanka), and the Secretariat (in Colombo).
