The Namgyal Monastery in Dharamshala as an Example of Nonviolence Education in the Struggle for Tibetan Independence – The case study.

This study examines the educational experiences of Tibetan exiles in Namgyal Monastery in Dharamshala, India, which is a significant center for the Tibetan diaspora. In this study, the case study method was used. The results are shown as a result of the author's larger project in India from 2011 to 2024 from the perspectives of pedagogy. Nonetheless, the survey also emphasizes the initiatives taken by Tibetan educational institutions to promote Tibetan culture, and offer Buddhist educational opportunities, suppressed by the Chinese occupiers in Tibet. The results indicate that although there are many educational obstacles for Tibetan refugees in Dharamshala, Namgyal Monastery prioritizes delivering high-quality instruction while fostering a feeling of cultural identity. Furthermore, Dharamshala continues to be a forum for promoting awareness of the Tibetan non-violent struggle and campaigning for Tibetan rights. Numerous groups and activists put up endless effort to draw attention to Tibet's human rights problems and court support from the world community. In order to better meet the changing demands of the refugee community, future research should concentrate on improving these educational approaches.

Abstract

This study examines the educational experiences of Tibetan exiles in Namgyal Monastery in Dharamshala, India, which is a significant center for the Tibetan diaspora. In this study, the case study method was used. The results are shown as a result of the author's larger project in India from 2011 to 2024 from the perspectives of pedagogy. Nonetheless, the survey also emphasizes the initiatives taken by Tibetan educational institutions to promote Tibetan culture, and offer Buddhist educational opportunities, suppressed by the Chinese occupiers in Tibet. The results indicate that although there are many educational obstacles for Tibetan refugees in Dharamshala, Namgyal Monastery prioritizes delivering high-quality instruction while fostering a feeling of cultural identity. Furthermore, Dharamshala continues to be a forum for promoting awareness of the Tibetan non-violent struggle and campaigning for Tibetan rights. Numerous groups and activists put up endless effort to draw attention to Tibet's human rights problems and court support from the world community. In order to better meet the changing demands of the refugee community, future research should concentrate on improving these educational approaches.
