Help Tibet

Help Tibet works in partnership with people of Tibetan origin to promote sustainable communities and to develop initiatives which support the well being of the most vulnerable.

The Help Tibet Trust was established in 1988 to help those Tibetans who still live in difficult conditions in Nepal and India. We provide practical help and support in the refugee camps as well as helping to preserve the Tibetan culture in exile.

Care of older people

Help Tibet has pioneered the care of older people in Nepal and now looks after approximately 200 people in Nepal and India, enabling many to remain in their own communities as well as providing residential homes for the most needy.

Improved facilities

Most refugees have a subsistence existence. Help Tibet works all over Nepal to provide basic facilities such as sanitation, clean water and improved housing.

All new developments focus on environmental considerations.

Education and Training

Help Tibet has provided in service teacher training for all teachers in Tibetan schools in Nepal, as well as Citizens Development Seminars for young people and professionals.

Development of self sustainability

Help Tibet helps the Tibetans in Nepal to become self sufficient by introducing a range of practical skills and employment opportunities which enables them to be financialy independent and to support their families.
