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.

Day of Action

April 7, 2014;

April 7 marks 12 years since Tenzin Delek Rinpoche, a respected Buddhist teacher and Tibetan community leader, was arrested on unproven allegations of involvement in a bombing. Students for a Free Tibet are co-ordinating a world-wide campaign for his release. A Human Rights Watch report advised the international community to raise Tenzin Delek’s case at every opportunity. His trial in December 2002 was not held in accordance with international fair trial standards and he was denied the right to be represented by lawyers hired by his family.
