Photograph of Carles Torner, on the left, executive director of PEN International (2014-20), and Jennifer Clement, on the right, president of PEN International (2015-), at a press conference that was held in Dharamsala in May 2017. Torner and Clement visited the Tibetan Writers Abroad Centre as a delegation from PEN International, meeting with Centre members and political figures to discuss international support for Tibetan writers and Tibetan people forced into exile. The delegation also received an audience with His Holiness the Dalai Lama, during which the damage inflicted upon Tibetan land and rivers was discussed and the Dalai Lama gave “full support” to PEN’s efforts in protecting persecuted writers.
