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.
The 33rd anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre of 1989 in China was marked in Dharamshala with an event organised by Students for a Free Tibet. The event included a “photo action” protest with activists recreating the act of defiance by “tank man” during the 1989 Tiananmen square protest: “tank man” became an icon of the struggle for freedom around the world.
