His Holiness the Dalai Lama is in town over the next few days to participate in the Vancouver Peace Summit as well as Free the Children’s We Day.

Discussions and presentations are taking place Sunday September 27th at the Chan Centre over at UBC and then at the Orpheum Theatre downtown on September 29th. The Vancouver Peace Summit will feature the following:

  • World Peace Through Personal Peace (sold out)
  • Nobel Laureates in Dialogue: Connecting for Peace (sold out)
  • Educating the Heart: Creativity and Well-Being and Heart-Mind Education (tickets still available)
  • Women & Peace Building (tickets still available)
  • CTV will be providing online webstreaming of the events and the Dalai Lama Centre will be posting updates to their blog, Flickr, and Twitter @DalaiLamaCenter. I will also have live coverage from the Summit on Sunday as well as We Day on Tuesday. You can follow conversations online using the hashtag #VPS09 on Twitter.
