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 Flag Banned

May 6, 2017;

The University of Massachusetts Amherst has refused to allow the Tibetan flag to be carried in the Parade of Nations Procession during its commencement ceremony. Kalsang Nangpa, a Tibetan student at the university and SFT leader, sought permission but was turned down – as was her brother two years ago – because Tibet is not recognised as a country by the US Department of State.
