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.

Human Rights

By Contact Staff /  January 18, 2013;

Tibet was ranked “Worst of the Worst”, along with North Korea and 8 other countries, in the US-based rights body Freedom House’s latest annual survey of political and civil rights. China itself was ranked as “Not Free” and described as having “the world’s most complex and sophisticated apparatus for political control.” The “Not Free” ranking is assigned to countries “where basic political rights are absent, and basic civil liberties are widely and systematically denied.”
