Phillips prepared a report, Global Truth Telling, which was presented to the National Peace Council (NPC) on February 20, 2012. NPC translated the booklet into Tamil and Sinhala and distributed it policy-makers, opinion leaders and representatives of the international community across Sri Lanka. Through NPC, the Program sponsored Patrick Burgess, an expert in truth and reconciliation commissions, to visit Sri Lanka for seminars with local civil society leaders on comparative experiences with truth and reconciliation commissions. In cooperation with the Government of Japan, the Program is organizing a delegation of 10 UN ambassadors to visit Sri Lanka and study reconciliation opportunities.
