Basil Fernando explains that the concept of "System Change" in a society, particularly in Sri Lanka, pertains to the fundamental transformation of the structures, institutions, and processes that govern it. This process should include immediate, middle-term and long-term changes. It involves not merely surface-level reforms but a deep-seated alteration in the underlying systems perpetuating corruption, injustice, and inequality. This could encompass changes in governance, legal frameworks, socio-economic structures, and cultural norms to create a more equitable and just society.
Basil Fernando is a Sri Lankan jurist, author, poet, human rights activist, Article 2 and Ethics in Action editor, and
prolific writer.
