von Lama Stanzin Norboo Kopay, Founder of ECSOL (Projektleiter) und President of Shachukul Gonpa School
The Changthang area currently has only one monastery boarding school, Shachukul Gonpa School, for children from nomadic families. After the seventh grade, they had the opportunity to switch to a college in Leh under difficult conditions. Since this new way to school would go over one of the highest passes on earth every day, most nomad children do without it – especially girls.
