The 2nd conference of the International Society for Bhutan Studies
This conference will continue the ISBS philosophy and provide an opportunity to think together about global happiness and well-being based on the latest research findings on Bhutan.
- As the ISBS is multidisciplinary, the conference will feature papers on topics from linguistics to history to natural science to Buddhism to economics and business and so on.
- As the ISBS promotes research excellence, papers will reflect the cutting edge research internationally on Bhutan.
- As the ISBS seeks to support Bhutanese scholars, both junior and established, this conference will feature their voices alongside international scholars.
- As the ISBS seeks to create intellectual community and academic exchange so the conference will provide spaces for mentoring, networking, and sharing.
- As the ISBS seeks to contribute to the happiness of future generations, so the ethos of our exchange will be to engage both the guardians of culture and tradition and those able to use the research to enact positive change.
- As the ISBS seeks to be inclusive, we welcome gifts that support the participation of all scholars.
