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.

Detained for Driving

June 7, 2017;

Loujain al-Hathloul, the Saudi human rights activist, has been arrested for the second time. She was detained for 73 days in 2014 for flouting the country’s ban on female drivers, but no reason for this second detention has been given and she has been denied access to a lawyer or her family. Amnesty International has called for her immediate release.
