This institution has been founded and directed in 1960 by Tsering Dolma Takla then Jetsun Pema, respectively the elder ans younger sisters of the Dalai lama, to look after Tibetan exiled children. The flag has a dark green field and a yellow border. In the center, we can see the logo of the village, which shows green children (a girl and a boy) wearing chubas (the traditional Tibetan clothes) and walking toward a device I can't identify. I think it may be a stylised Buddhist emblem but which one? Though, there are Tibetan words above the logo, and below it two lines in English. First, "Others Before Self" then "Tibetan Children Village's School".
