Phase 01 – Power Up
Power
Up is a brand-new project initiated by the Leo Club of the University of
Colombo that falls under the category of sports and recreation.
The topic addressed in the first phase was to spread awareness and educate the public on techniques of self-defense and the legality behind it. Prior to the final event of the first phase, a campaign was carried out to spread awareness on the importance of self-defense using scenario-based videos which were published on social media platforms such as YouTube, Facebook and Instagram.
The final event consisted of two sessions. The first was a demonstration of self-defense techniques conducted by the current karate captain of the University of Colombo, Mr. Sanju Wickramasinghe. The second session was to address the legal aspects behind self-defense conducted by Ms. Lakmali Dissanayake, a renowned criminal lawyer at State Counsel, Attorney General's Department.
