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.
Freedom House has released its 2019 report which says that for the 13th consecutive year, there is a “consistent and ominous” decline in global freedom, and that democracy is in retreat. China remains a country “in the spotlight”. Tibet is rated “not free”. Freedom House is based in the United States and conducts research and advocacy on democracy, political freedom and human rights.
