The IBA’s School of Leadership will welcome thirty of the best qualified graduates from the monastic colleges of India, Nepal and Tibet, to begin a three-year intensive program in October of 2008.  Most of them will be from Tibetan refugee family backgrounds, and will be speakers of Tibetan and Nepali, though some may have Hindi, and a bit of English. Of the great number who have applied for this program, those meeting the initial academic prerequisites have been invited here to write an entrance exam in Buddhist Philosophy and to be interviewed to determine their suitability for the program. The thirty monks who show the most outstanding promise in their interviews and exams will be chosen as the program’s participants.

Feel free to browse around to find out more about each of the monks.

We are still looking for sponsors, donations and volunteers, so check out the site to find out more about how you can help!
