The meeting will discuss ways to harness Tibet's geopolitical significance for garnering global support, besides deciding on strategy to convince the Buddhist population in China and seek their help for an amicable solution to the problem through dialogue, he said.
Addressing the gathering, Speaker of Tibetan parliament Pempa Sering said the agenda of the meet is to discuss ways and means to deal with various "critical" issues inside Tibet.
