Bhutan has a rich oral tradition, but a teaching practice that often makes students think 'history' is boring. Dorji has found that #OralHistory is being used by teachers to bridge that gap

In this provocation, Tenzin is offering examples of transnational experiential education programs. Quoting our colleague Dave Palmer's work on Yiriman Project to consider benefits of intergenerational cultural learning

I feel a real sense of honour to be part of this interdisciplinary Australia-Bhutan Conference at #ECU - such a sense of excitement which is a bit weird for an academic event! Now learning about the Royal University of Bhutan from keynote Rinchen Dorji

Wyndam argues the statues were defamiliarised by their destruction - before they had been taken for granted. She is basing this on ethnographic research in Afghanistan during preservation projects by UNESCO+ ICOMOS
