Description

This is the remarkable story of a Tibetan peasant who, convinced of the vital importance of education for Tibetans like himself, has raised the money to build more than fifty-three primary schools in rural Tibet. The project began with one school and became a grassroots effort that gained the support of both Tibetans and friends and contributors around the world. It examines the conception, financing, and realization of the Namling School Project in the complex political climate and developing market economy of the new Tibet/China.
