The Missing 1,000
March and April 2008 saw the largest protests in Tibet for 50 years. China's response was swift and brutal. Today a climate of fear reigns across Tibet. It is estimated that over 6,000 Tibetans were detained in connection to the protests. The fate of over 1,000 people remains unknown, rendering them extremely vulnerable to torture.

 Other areas of interest

Human rights
Although China is a signatory of the UN Declaration of Human Rights abuses of fundamental rights abound in occupied Tibet. 

 

Culture & society
Restrictions on freedom of religion and educational opportunities are only part of the assaults on Tibetan culture and society. 

Economy & environment
The so-called economic boom in Tibet is of negligible benefit to Tibetans and has an incalculable cost to their environment. 

 

Politics
China’s economic clout means few national and international government bodies are willing to take up the cause of Tibet.
