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.
A group of 20 Tibetan writers, educators, and former political prisoners inside Tibet have written to the United Nations’ new High Commissioner for Human Rights, Zeid Ra’ad al-Hussein, ahead of his forthcoming visit to Tibet. They ask him to look closely at charges of blatant rights abuses and environmental concerns in Tibet, and caution him against falling into any “trap” set by Chinese officials to mislead him.
