Sino-Tibetan Dialogue—Prospects and Perils
with Dr. Lobsang Sangay

Dr. Lobsang Sangay is presently a Research Fellow at East Asian Legal Studies Program, Harvard Law School. He earned his Doctorate in law, and master's degree from Harvard Law School, and did his LLB and B.A. (Honors) from Delhi University, India.

He was a recipient of the 2004 Yong K. Kim' 95 Prize of excellence for his Doctorate dissertation and Fulbright Fellowship to study at Harvard Law School. In India, he was a student leader and was elected as one of the youngest national executive members of the Tibetan Youth Congress, the largest NGO among Tibetans in exile.

For the last eleven years, in his Track II Initiative, Dr. Sangay has organized five unprecedented conferences between Chinese and Tibetan scholars, including an ice breaking meeting between HH the Dalai Lama and 35 Chinese scholars at Harvard University in 1993.

He has given numerous talks on Sino-Tibet conflict and exile Tibetan issues in various institutes and venues around the world. Recently, the Asia 21 Young Leaders Forum of the Asia Society selected him as one of the 25 Young Leaders of Asia.
