In celebration of His Holiness the Dalai Lama’s 90th birthday, the International Campaign for Tibet (ICT) launched The Compassion Rising World Tour 2025—a sweeping global campaign to honor the Dalai Lama’s life and efforts, while inspiring acts of compassion, spotlighting Tibet’s enduring struggle for freedom, and uniting global communities around the Dalai Lama’s message of peace and resilience.
“At its core, this campaign is about more than celebration—it’s a movement to amplify the Dalai Lama’s enduring message of compassion, wisdom, and peace, while shining a powerful spotlight on the hopes and resilience of the Tibetan people," said Tencho Gyatso, President of ICT. “Through Compassion Rising, we seek to build more connected communities and mobilize action worldwide, planting the seeds of a more compassionate and just planet.”
The Compassion Rising World Tour 2025 will unite individuals and communities across cultures and continents who have been touched by the Dalai Lama’s message, and this milestone birthday will be a catalyst for solidarity, deeper understanding of Tibet’s vibrant heritage, and a collective commitment to compassion in action.
