Fragments of Tibet


Dates: 14th February to 21st March 2010

Time: 09.00 to 17.00

Venue: Malta Maritime Museum, Vittoriosa.

 

When Tibet opened its doors to the rest of the world in the 1950s, a remarkable civilisation with a vibrant culture and profound spiritual traditions emerged.  Tibetan arts and culture form a valuable part of the world’s heritage; they draw their value from Mahayana Buddhism, and they have been shaped by the remoteness of the Tibetan territory and the climatic and environmental conditions of the Himalayas.  The Tibet Society Malta, in collaboration with Heritage Malta and the Norbulingka Institute, is organising a photographic exhibition entitled ‘Fragments of Tibet’.  Our aim is to share with you a unique and rich heritage that is being preserved in Tibetan refugee communities in India.

GLEN - an Experience in Global Education
Meeting at Sarria, Floriana on the 28th November 7.15pm

Antonella, one of the Maltese GLEN participants for this year, has just arrived from an unforgettable three month experience in Cape Town, South Africa. The title of the project was "Republic of South Africa: Community Work in Early Childhood Education".

"I helped in the daily running of the centre through playing with the children, doing crafts with them and through feeding some of the babies during lunch time...I also worked in different childcare centres on a number of small projects including helping in assembling a jungle gym, initiating a small toilet block for one of the centres, getting quotes and materials for changing a roof of another centre, getting a big sponsorship for Sakhingomso Educare Centre and taking pictures of the children for their 'graduation' as they finish from the Educare Centre... This was a great opportunity for me; a good learning experience indeed."

Antonella will be sharing her experience next Friday through a presentation accompanied with some photos such as those attached. This will be followed by a brief description of next year's projects in Zambia and South Africa.  Application forms and information leaflets will also be available at the end of the meeting for those interested.
