It will include participants from several monastic seminaries and research centers from South Asia, including Dzongsar Institute Research Center (Chauntra), Ngagyur Nyingma Research Institute (Mysore), and Shechen Research Unite (Shechen monastery, Kathmandu), alongside several individuals from other institutions. The workshop will be followed by a week-long supervision workshop involving the researchers (first batch) of the Nyingma Ngagyur Research Institute (March, 20–26, 2017).
