Contact is taking a holiday!

Contact is taking a break after 25 years of bringing you news of Tibet and Tibetan issues. We are celebrating our 25 years by bringing you the story of Contact and the people who have made it happen, and our archive is still there for you to access at any time, and below you can read the story of Contact, how it came into being and the wonderful reflections of the people who have made it happen over the years.

When and how Contact will re-emerge and evolve will be determined by those who become involved.

Travel Restricted

May 8, 2015;

The Tibetan Centre for Human Rights and Democracy has highlighted the way in which laws in China are preventing Tibetans from the Tibet Autonomous Region from travelling abroad, contravening their human right to the freedom of movement, including the right to leave their country. Under these laws, passports are confiscated, preventing people from travelling outside China and further restrictions prevent Tibetans from travelling to religious ceremonies and sacred sites.
