With a team of international relations and public diplomacy experts, Factum mobilizes Sri Lankan and Asian specialists on international and regional politics, economics, environmental and security issues and other sectors, in pursuit of independent policy research, in-depth contextual analysis and unbiased commentaries.

We are committed to accuracy. Our goal is objectivity. We value facts over rhetoric and want to take innate bias out of the international relations equation. To this end, we break down and present unadulterated facts on international relations, through traditional and digital media narratives, open-source records and insightful opinion pieces, in a way that will prove useful to academics, diplomats, students and others.

Factum provides a platform for scholars and international relations practitioners to voice their opinions and share their expertise. The diverse viewpoints we publish and the academic discussions we facilitate cover the gamut of geopolitics. Our intention here is to present complex theories and paradigms as simply as possible, bearing in mind that IR is not and should not be relegated to an elitist discipline.

In short, we strive to be the best and most accurate analysts of IR developments which impact Sri Lanka’s foreign policy and international standing.

Factum also assists local and international organizations, foreign missions and multinational entities in shaping and positioning their public diplomacy agenda in a meaningful and strategic way. Our team of experts will research, strategize, design, implement, monitor and evaluate public diplomacy initiatives for our clients, effectivity and efficiently. Our work here extends to strategic communications and tech cooperation.
