Tea production is one of the main sources of foreign exchange for Sri Lanka (formerly called Ceylon), and accounts for 2% of GDP, generating roughly $700 million annually to the economy of Sri Lanka. It employs, directly or indirectly over 1 million people, and in 1995 directly employed 215,338 on tea plantations and estates. Sri Lanka is the world's fourth largest producer of tea. In 1995, it was the world's leading exporter of tea, (rather than producer) with 23% of the total world export, but it has since been surpassed by Kenya.

Sewali (7) lives with her parents at the bottom of Ravana waterfall close to the town of Nuwara Eliya. The small shack in which they live in doubles up as a small shop selling soft drinks to passers by. Sewali's parents hardly earn enough to make a living, and at the time of taking this image Sewali was suffering from an unbearable tooth ache. A weeks worth of medication and a small amount of money helped with the pain, nevertheless it did not stop her asking for sweets before I left. Sri Lanka, 2014.
