Following successful conferences in Washington DC and Paris, France, the third Future of Tibet conference will take place in New York, USA from April 8-9, 2023. This conference is specifically aimed at Tibetan youth, therefore Tibetans aged 18-30 in the NY/NJ area are invited to join us for a weekend of talks, discussions and workshopping.

The aim of the youth conference is to create a coherent sequence of plausible segments that create vivid, compelling stories about what the future could look like for Tibet. The conference hopes to initiate discussion about the future of Tibet.

There will be expert panels and speakers, but also plenty of room for everybody to take part and exchange ideas. Confirmed participants include activist and community organizer Chemi Lhamo, Tibet Action Institute Director Lhadon Tethong, Researcher and Strategist Tendor, MPP for Parkdale—High Park in Canada Bhutila Karpoche, Interim Vice President and director of Outreach at the International Campaign for Tibet, Tenchoe Gyatso, Social Policy and Economics doctoral candidate at Columbia university, Tsewang Rigzin and more.
