L.I.T wants to educate people in Dharamsala about Tibet; but we also want you to take home what you have learned and educate others. So we are offering people a take-home pack.
This includes:
- The organisation’s booklet, which contains a variety of information about Tibet and personal stories, for you to share with everyone back home.
- An informative documentary about Tibet, which features the vice-president’s personal story. This TV friendly film can be shown at home to educate people in a relaxed environment.
- A variety of Tibetan hand-made necklaces, which contain special inspirational messages, to remind you of your trip, keep the Tibetan cause close to your heart and keep the fire burning from wherever you are.
This pack is also published on L.I.T.’s Facebook group and can be emailed to you on request. L.I.T. wants to target a worldwide audience, not just the community in Dharamsala!
L.I.T. wants you to get active. We have given you a basic knowledge about Tibet. Now we want you to continue to learn about Tibet, share ideas for solutions and educate others about the Tibetan situation. We want to people to be educated about the Tibetan issue so they can openly discuss the situation.
We want people to petition their governments, their local ministers, human rights organisations and other non-government organizations, to urge the Chinese government to address their human rights violations. However, as the Dalai Lama’s delegates failed peace talks with the Chinese government last year demonstrated, this is an extremely difficult task.
So we also want people to get involved at a grassroots level. We are urging people to write stories about Tibet to your local newspapers engage in conversation with a range of people especially Chinese students about Tibet and try to come up with new ideas about how we can achieve a democracy movement in China and Tibet. If we can affect a positive change in the direction of basic human rights from within China then a change will hopefully occur from within Tibet.
We want new ideas about how change can occur in Tibet so please feel free to email us any ideas so we can engage in an open discussion about these suggestions on our website and at our events. What we want is for change to occur from within China and we need everyone’s support for this to occur. So please help us in learning and idea- sharing about the Tibetan problem, so we can find positive solutions.
