Recently returned from Tibet, Phil Borges is now touring to promote his latest work, which focuses on the changing roles and lives of women on the Tibetan Plateau. Dedicating much of his work to advocate for the empowerment of women, Borges has released several books about this issue, including "Tibetan Portrait" and "Enduring Spirit."

On June 23, Borges will speak at Museum of History and Industry in Seattle to help with fundraising for Bridges to Understanding. For more information, visit bridges2understanding.org.
