Chamari Athapaththu

Emerge Ambassador

Chamari, Captain of the Sri Lanka Women's Cricket Team, is a force for transformation both on and off the field. Her leadership philosophy - "play freely, positively, and with courage" - has not only elevated Sri Lankan women's cricket internationally but mirrors the journey of empowerment we witness in our participants.

Having overcome numerous obstacles in her path to becoming an international sports icon, Chamari brings authentic understanding to her role as an Emerge ambassador. She demonstrates through her own journey that with determination and support, young women can break through barriers and achieve their dreams.

As she continues to dominate on the cricket ground and inspire the next generation, Chamari's partnership with Emerge reinforces our belief in the power of young women to transform their lives and lead change in their communities.
