Heart-Mind Youth Dialogue

We are delighted to announce that the Dalai Lama is returning to BC, and that he will be visiting a Canadian school or the first time. On October 21, he will spend the morning at John Oliver Secondary School in Vancouver in dialogue with secondary students who represent a cross-section of school districts in BC. In this live-streamed event, the young people will share the stage with the Dalai Lama and will share a personal story of a transformative time in their life when their hearts were educated in school.
