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.

Access Ban

December 14, 2017;

Access has been banned at the Achen Gangyap or, in Chinese, Hoh Xil Nature Reserve in Qinghai, this includes the nomads who have lived sustainably off the land there for thousands of years, with threats of punishment for transgressors. The reserve was given UNESCO World Heritage status earlier this year which at the time caused concern for the future management of the area.
