Ecotourism: Tibet is a special travel destination and tourism is one of the biggest sources of income for the region. However, people question whether or not their tourist dollars help or hurt the Tibetan way of life and the environment. We believe it all has to start with education for both members of local communities and visitors. Learn more
Cultural
and Outreach: TVP raise awareness of Tibetan culture and all aspects of project
development through Tibetan photo exhibits, presentations, and cultural events.
This is an ongoing effort, in which TVP organizes 4 - 6 events annually.
