On June 21, 2023, President Gonpo Dhundup along with representatives from prominent Tibetan non-governmental organizations (NGOs) based in Dharamshala, had an interactive briefing with participants of Gurukul. Gurukul is an annual program organized by the Foundation for Universal Responsibility of His Holiness the Dalai Lama (FURhhdl) that focuses on the roles and responsibilities of NGOs in the Tibetan freedom movement.
During the briefing, the participants had the opportunity to engage with the Tibetan Youth Congress President and other NGO representatives, discussing various aspects of the Tibetan freedom movement and the vital role played by NGOs in advancing the cause. The briefing likely included discussions on strategies, initiatives, and challenges faced by NGOs in their efforts to promote Tibetan rights, preserve Tibetan culture, and advocate for a free Tibet.
The Foundation for Universal Responsibility of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, through its Gurukul program, plays a significant role in providing educational opportunities and promoting dialogue on important issues related to human rights, peace, and social justice. The interaction with the Tibetan Youth Congress and other NGOs served as an important component of this program, enabling participants to gain insights into the work being done by Tibetan organizations and the challenges they face in advocating for the rights and freedom of the Tibetan people.
