TIBETAN WOMEN WRITING SYMPOSIUM 

༄༅། ། གངས་ཅན་སྐྱེས་མས་རྩོམ་རིག་གླེང་བ།

This symposium focuses on exploring and celebrating the recent emergence of Tibetan female writers in their Himalayan homelands and in the broader global diaspora. Prominent Tibetan authors from across the globe will come to Charlottesville to share their creative essays, short stories, memoirs, and poems in person. The symposium is a public event featuring readings of their original works, including translation, as well as scholarly discussions of their compositions with scholars from across North America and Europe.  

This symposium is generously supported by the Page-Barbour funds, the Center for Global Inquiry + Innovation, the Tibet Center, the East Asia Center, Virginia Center for the Study of Religion, the Race, Religion, and Democracy Lab, and the Department of Religious Studies at University of Virginia.
