Tibet in Crisis? A Conversation on the State of Tibetan Human Rights and Sino-Tibetan Affairs

GW Amnesty International presents: Tibet in Crisis? A conversation on the state of Tibetan human rights and Sino-Tibetan affairs.

After a short BBC documentary, our panel will hold a discussion about the current political situation in the TAR and state of Sino-Tibetan affairs. The panelists will discuss the ongoing impact of the political situation on the human rights of Tibetans in China and surrounding areas; Chinese state approach to policy and governance in the region; the Tibetan exile government's response and engagement in the situation; the role of the international community and of the Tibetan diaspora; approaches being taken to protect the human rights of Tibetans. There will be Q&A after the panel, as well as a special piano performance by contemporary Tibetan musician Ngawang Samphel.
