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.

Flag at Rio!

August 15, 2016;

The Tibetan flag is flying at the Rio Olympics despite the fact that the Tibetan competitors there have to represent China and not Tibet. The flag is flying at a stall in the food park, with speakers playing Tibetan music. The stallholder, Romero, spent 40 days in a Chinese prison after protesting about China’s human rights record at the Beijing Olympics in 2008.
