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.

Geneva Summit

February 27, 2014;

Dhardon Sharling, the youngest member of the Tibetan parliament, has criticised China’s human rights record in Tibet and its handling of the protests by Tibetans.  She was speaking to a gathering of human rights activists and former political prisoners from Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Pakistan, Russia, Egypt, Tibet and other countries at the 6th Geneva Summit for Human Rights and Democracy, a parallel event to the UN Human Rights Council’s annual session. Sharling said Chinese government policies implemented in Tibet pose a threat to the Tibetan identity being lost forever.
