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.

Worst Place

Tibet is at the bottom of the Freedom House annual Freedom in the World Report which assesses levels of political freedoms and civil liberties. Only Syria comes below Tibet as the “worst of the worst” places in the world. Tibet scored 7, the lowest score, for both political rights and civil liberties, and an overall “Not free” rating. Freedom House is an influential American human rights and democracy organisation.
