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.

Nobel Prize

His Holiness the Dalai Lama has congratulated the World Food Programme (WFP) after the UN affiliated organisation won the 2020 Nobel Peace Prize. His Holiness said that the WFP played a “vital role in reducing hunger in the world.” He also said that the problem of world hunger could only be solved “on the basis of international cooperation.” The Dalai Lama received the Nobel Peace Prize himself in 1989.
