Dalai Lama Center for Peace and Education

The Dalai Lama Center for Peace and Education is a charitable organization based in Vancouver, Canada, that educates through creative learning, facilitating and applying research, and connecting people and ideas.
Founded in 2005 by His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Victor Chan, the center embodies his Holiness´ lifelong commitment to compassion and inner well-being.

"Educating the heart" is the Center´s tag line.
By bringing peace into our own lives, the center will help to bring peace into the world.
