MacBain to launch international fund for Tibetan culture preservation
“We believe that through culture we can reach out to foreign affairs and foreign policies, and the more the heads of state are aware of the positive cultural actions, the more they are positive towards Tibet and China,” she added.
MacBain is also the founder of the New Globalization Platform, part of the Global Creative Leadership Initiative that has gained an increasing influence. She has been working to promote exchanges between different cultures.
While meeting the delegation, headed by Tobdrub Wangben, vice minister of the State Commission for Ethnic Affairs of China, MacBain said that she would like to set up a special session at the coming “Global Creative Leadership Summit” scheduled on Sept. 21-23.
She said that she has invited Chinese leaders and experts to brief the world on the situation in Tibet so that “the heads of state attending the meeting will gain more knowledge of Tibet.”
Noting that “culture is the window to understand values, beliefs and tradition so that we can respect our differences,” MacBain said that she would also organize exhibitions of Tibetan cultures in “major world capitals like London, New York and Washington.”
She is also considering of organizing a grand exhibition of Tibetan culture in the United Nations in cooperation with a partner from China or simply with the U.N.
