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.
Sherphel, a Tibetan man from Serthar county has been released after more than four years in prison in Sichuan. He was charged with alleged links to self-immolation protests on a day when a peaceful protest took place in his town, and served his full prison term. He was released several months ago but the news has only now come through because of the communications clampdown in his area.
