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.

February 12, 2022;

The Dean of Syracuse University’s Newhouse School of Public Communications in New York, Mark Lodato, has been forced to retract his Lunar New Year email in which he mentioned Tibet as a country separate from China in his Lunar New Year celebrations email. Chinese students at the school forced him to apologise, this despite a Tibetan student’s public confirmation that Tibetans do not consider themselves part of China.
