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.

Homeless in France

May 30, 2019;

In France, Tibetan asylum seekers staying in a migrant camp have been made homeless when the authorities dismantled their camp in a woodland at Conflans, 30 km from Paris. Their camp consisted of about 100 tents; the alternative accommodation offered could only take 120 of the 200 Tibetans needing a home. They escaped from Tibet earlier this year and are hoping to obtain work visas in France.
