The Tibetan Nuns Project, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 1987, is dedicated to educating and empowering nuns of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition as teachers and leaders. Through their groundbreaking educational programs, the project supports over 800 nuns and seven nunneries in northern India, aiming to elevate the educational standards and position of women within the Tibetan Buddhist community.
With a mission to sustain Tibetan religion and culture, the Tibetan Nuns Project provides a safe and empowering environment for Tibetan Buddhist nuns to practice their religion and receive education. Through the support of global donors, the project has achieved significant milestones, including the establishment of Dolma Ling Nunnery and Institute, the re-establishment of Shugsep Nunnery and Institute, and the initiation of the annual inter-nunnery debate, the Jang Gonchoe.
