Tibet World is pleased to announce our University Program! This winter, faculty and students from the University of Denver in the United States came to Dharamsala to tour and volunteer. Tibet World put together an immersive program for the University of Denver to get to know and become a part of the Tibetan community in exile in Dharamsala.
Through Tibet World’s program, the University of Denver was able to attend daily talks and have dialogues with executive directors of prominent Tibetan NGOs, like Students for Free Tibet and Tibetan Youth Congress. Additionally, Tibet World was able to organize a meeting with the Tibetan Prime Minister Syikong Dr. Lobsang Sangye. Tibet World also coordinated community events, such as folk shows, fusion art performances featuring prominent poets, musicians, and thangka artists. Other optional programming included Tibetan book signings, language classes, and nature hikes.

Yeshi was able to draw on organizations here in exile to show the numerous facets of this movement. The compassion, unity, and drive for dignity through improvements in human rights are components of this movement Yeshi and Tibet World brought to the forefront of our experience here. As a master student of international development, I was completely refreshed at how honest of a picture Yeshi was able to develop through his programming and access to a multitude of organizations in Dharamsala.

The organizations to which he brought our group, DU ISL Dharamsala 2013, helped to inform us about current actions taken by and the thoughts of the Tibetan and non-Tibetan community regarding the Tibetan struggle for independence.” [/testimonial][/testimonials]

He conveyed a strong sense of compassion for them and support for us as he introduced us to both traditional and contemporary culture and diverse political points of view from the exile community. He is warm and cheerful and also bright and articulate. Most of all, he is highly organized and a clear communicator. I think Yeshi Lundhup and Tibet World make great hosts for academic groups studying and working with the Tibetan community in Dharamsala.” [/testimonial]
