March - Tibetan Women's Stories

27/9/2015

 
Picture
       As part of International Women's week Rowena gave a talk about some of the women she had met in Rewalsar and their stories of life in Tibet under Chinese occupation, their escape across the Himalayas and  their experiences of living as refugees in India. 

As well as being at times harrowing, their stories were also ones of hope, forgiveness and pride in being Tibetan. 

​The money raised from the event is being given to help fund the setting up of a community centre in Rewalsar.
