Tibet House US was founded at the request of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, and is dedicated to preserving Tibet’s unique culture at a time when it is confronted with extinction on its own soil. By presenting Tibetan civilization and its profound wisdom, beauty, and special art of freedom to the people of the world, we hope to inspire others to join the effort to protect and save it.

Tibet House US is part of a worldwide network of Tibetan institutions committed to ensuring that the light of the Tibetan spirit never disappears from the face of this earth.

About Tibet House

We are living in an increasingly uncertain world. The past few years have seen us face conflicts, a pandemic, environmental disasters, economic challenges, and a plethora of other societal issues.
 
We all have a personal responsibility to cultivate goodness and virtue in ourselves and society, but how do we do this against this challenging backdrop? The Dalai Lama's vision for a better future, world, and society leads the way for us.
 
With the express endorsement and support of the Dalai Lama, we’re pleased to once again partner with Tibet House US to build upon the phenomenal success of our 2020 and 2021 summits, and present The Dalai Lama Global Vision Summit 2023. Join us for five inspirational days of teachings and meditations from an esteemed panel of Buddhist teachers, scholars, best-selling authors, and spiritual activists.
 
This momentous online summit is 
completely free to attend. We'll explore a wide range of ideas spanning human goodness, compassion, universal ethics, meditation, and wisdom—including the power of meditation to fuel positive societal change, the joy of ethical action, and how we can awaken compassion in ourselves and others.  
 
Join us online for this unique opportunity to explore the message, vision, and teachings of the Dalai Lama and the transformative power of cultivating goodness and virtue—a message humanity wants and needs to hear now more than ever.

You can view the summit for free from November 8–10.
