1st Tea leaves have made wonders in Sri Lanka, and have become a vital source of the tea history and heritage in Sri Lanka. This simple leaf led the country to identify tea as a key industry and one of the major sectors in the economy. As a human-oriented industry and primary source of livelihood for a cluster of the Sri Lankan community for centuries, the leaf has created a legacy in the country. However, the sustainability of the landscapes has been curtailed and infringed upon due to a lack of conservation and poor heritage management. The major reasons for the failure of conservation and management are resulted by absence of research and scientific communication. Providing a scientific platform for tea cultural landscapes and tourism would be inevitable to ensure the sustainability of tea landscapes along with tangible and intangible heritage. . The conference will serve as an ideal platform for researchers, academicians, practitioners, industrialists and policy makers to share ideas, collaborations and cooperation in the fields of Management and Social Sciences.
