Why Tibet Matters in Today’s World
Inspired by the vision of His Holiness the Dalai Lama
The International Campaign for Tibet promotes human rights, democratic freedoms and self-determination for the Tibetan people.
What Tibetans face
Beijing-appointed officials treat expressions of Tibetan identity as an act of defiance and are now signaling their intent to name a Dalai Lama successor. However, the seven million Tibetans inside Tibet remain resilient and are finding ways to preserve their identity, culture, religion, and language despite China’s intense repression. ICT aims to support and empower their efforts and galvanize international attention on Tibet and its people.
I am a native of the land of snows. All the six million Tibetans from the land of snows carry the common responsibility of the Tibetan cause. As for me, I am also one Tibetan from the Amdo region of Tibet, so until my death I have the responsibility of the Tibetan cause.
