​Machik Weekend was hybrid this year! We convened about 340 participants,  in-person in Washington DC as well as globally online.
​

HOMECOMING 2022

For 16 years, we've convened an annual gathering for those who are passionate about civic engagement, social transformation and the future of Tibet. From the beginning, Machik Weekend has grown a conversation about what it would take to build alternative futures in the imperfect world in which we live.

This year, we gathered as a hybrid event in Washington DC and globally online from 11-13 November 2022!  The topics were broad as we explored creativity and Tibet, conservation, Tibetan masculinities, food sovereignty, socially responsible entrepreneurship, and much more.

This event was only possible with the talent and spirit of dozens of intrepid volunteers (see the volunteers' page to meet them!) and supportive donors such as Lhundup & Yangki Amdo, Phuntsok Dolma, Heather Henson, Kim Kaston, Barbara Kelley and Dr Martha Miller.  A huge thank you to all the passionate community who made Machik Weekend possible!
