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.

Tibetan Independence day was marked with a “Majestic Walk” event organised by Students for a Free Tibet, with activists showcasing Tibetan culture on the streets of McLeod Ganj. Feb 13 is the anniversary of the declaration of Tibetan independence by HH the 13th Dalai Lama in Simla in 1913, to highlight the Tibetan Cultural Resistance. In Tibet, all events marking this day are banned by the Chinese authorities.
