On 21 September 2015, over 2000 people joined the Dalai Lama and friends for an afternoon event on the subject of Creating a Happier World. Below are videos of all the main speakers and activities (filmed by The Meridian Trust), plus behind-the-scenes footage and TV coverage.
Many thanks to all of the speakers, to the Lyceum theatre for hosting the event, to The Meridian Trust for filming it, to Alan Stratton & Gui Hung for their 'behind-the-scenes' footage and to our amazing team of event volunteers who made the whole thing happen!
