Tibet Healing Fund (hosted in Portland, OR recently)

Solutions (by Doctor-la and others attending) from a local level for Tibetans in established and well functioning communities in the USA and other places:

  • Maintain or rekindle relationships with families in tibet and surrounding areas or "adopt a village."
  • Sharing of data is difficult since nomadic and farming families generally don't share too much info (accurately) but what Doctor-la did was compare/contrast data with communities in Humla-Jumla in western Nepal. Stats are all over the place.
  • Host Doctor-la and other personalities for fund raising and sharing info on such projects
  • Encourage monks and lay people to do such projects said, one of the audience.
