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.

Fire Destroys Shops

January 24, 2022;

The livelihoods of at least ten Tibetan families have been destroyed by a fire in the Tibetan market in Ambala in the Indian state of Haryana. Formerly there were around 20 Tibetan stalls trading in the market, mainly selling sweaters, but most have not been able to trade over the last two years due to the pandemic; now their remaining stock has been destroyed.
