Mission

The mission of the Dalai Lama Foundation is to support the development of our shared global capacity for ethics and peace, based on a non-dogmatic ethic of compassion.

The Foundation has been established, with the Dalai Lama’s endorsement and advice, by friends and students who have known and worked with him for many years. We have been fortunate to receive a letter from His Holiness with an invitation to all to join with us to work for a better world.

Marshalling the moral force of the Dalai Lama and the energy and expertise of many who have been inspired by him, we will raise a strong voice articulating an ethic of mutual respect and care based on a recognition of our shared humanity.

By applying the principles of innovation, leverage and measurability we learn from best practices from the business world, we will ensure that that voice makes a difference.
