Centre for a Smart Future

The Centre for a Smart Future (CSF) is an Asia-centric think tank advancing great ideas, where young professionals work in an interdisciplinary, contemporary and solutions-oriented way. CSF is co-founded by an economist and a social science researcher. It is based out of Colombo, with a network of practitioners, researchers, policy professionals and thought leaders across the world. The Centre focuses primarily on five key thematic areas, with innovation and inclusion as fundamental cross-cutting themes. Our Global Advisory Council comprises former senior government officials, former UN regional leaders, renown academics, and practitioners and activists with a proven track-record of impact. Our team is small but growing, with like-minded individuals looking for a home for new and engaging work, that goes beyond how Sri Lankan think tanks typical operate.
