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

February 13, 2014;

Tibetan exiles gathered at the Tibetan Children’s’ Village Day school in McLeod Ganj, Dharamshala to commemorate the “Tibet-China Peace Treaty of 821-822 AD – secure the past, shape the future”. The organisers, Students for a Free Tibet, chose this day to mark 101 years since the proclamation of Tibetan independence by the thirteenth Dalai Lama. A replica of the stone pillar with the engraving of the Treaty which still stands in front of the Jokhang Temple in Lhasa was put on display for public viewing.
