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.

A big congratulation on the 25th anniversary of service, building trust and acting as a cohesive force in our society. On this momentous occasion of achieving the great milestone, The Tibet Museum and the entire Tibetan community is indebted towards dissemination of valuable information in our society tirelessly for more than a couple of decades. The Tibet Museum in the Temple has been a powerhouse of Contact magazine where the tourists and delegates get the fresh new information about Tibet at large and Dharamshala in detail. Visitors love to take a copy of the magazine every time they visit the old Museum and many people deemed it as an “encyclopedia” covering a variety of topics. The best part is its true model of an NGO where Lha invites large numbers of volunteers and gives back in the form of free food for poor people and other various social services in the field of education, rehabilitation and cultural preservation. We wish all the best for future endeavours and may peace and love prevail.

–Tenzin Topdhen, Director of Tibet Museum, Central Tibetan Administration

I started my agency in 2018 which was located opposite the Lha Charitable Trust office. Since then every month, they come to leave copies of Contact magazine at my office. Mostly foreigners would like to read it in my office, and also some of them take the copies with them because everything is updated in the magazine about Tibet and Tibetan people. What I wanted to say about this magazine is the stories, the best one and generally a combination of three elements: access, narrative, and disclosure. This magazine brings all the information that people want to know.

Congratulations to have reached such a great landmark of 25 years is like nearly three decades of good work by you. I still remember that Contact was not only a magazine but an address to Dharamshala. All you had to do was look at Contact and you would get your desired information . I wish you all the very best for the future and with blessings of His Holiness may you complete 25 more years of publication.

– Vineet Sharma , Managing Host of Dream Works, Contact advertiser and distribution point

I have been associated with Contact magazine for so many years and have always felt that it was a perfect decision to choose this platform to advertise my clinic. This magazine had the widest reach among all the tourists and the locals. Despite the fact that social media is gaining popularity, things like Contact magazine never lose their charm. The staff dealing with the advertising are ever so helpful and amazing as always. And the best thing they offer is the guide map of the town on the back page which is just so helpful for everyone. Just keep up the good work guys..Best wishes for your 25th anniversary.

– Dr Natasha Mehra, owner of Perfect 32 Dental Clinic, advertiser

Contact magazine is a great platform to reach out to the world and portray the Tibetan culture and non violent messages of His Holiness the Dalai Lama of peace, harmony and tranquillity to the world.
