Vision

As the largest Tibet support group in the world, ICT is defined by acts of skillful compassion. For more than 35 years, ICT has served the vision of His Holiness the Dalai Lama and the people of Tibet. We help Tibetans in their peaceful struggle for democracy and human rights and seek to preserve Tibet’s ancient culture of wisdom. Since 1988, ICT has fought to get the international community to take action for Tibet. We’ve worked with elected leaders and citizens throughout the world to provide political and humanitarian support for Tibetans. Through these efforts, we’ve helped pass groundbreaking laws. ICT has supported the release and rehabilitation of Tibetans who were unjustly imprisoned for their political and religious beliefs. We’ve also provided programs to assist the Tibetan community. Through our monitoring and reports, we’ve told the world the truth about human rights, environmental issues and political conditions in Tibet, which the Chinese government tries to hide.

Goals

1. 1.PASSING THE RESOLVE TIBET ACT | This bill in the US Congress puts pressure on Chinese leaders to resume negotiations with envoys of the Dalai Lama to peacefully resolve China’s occupation of Tibet.
2. 2.PRESERVING TIBETAN CULTURE | China is taking Tibetan children from their families to attend state run boarding schools without access to their language or a connection to Tibet’s culture and history.
3. 3.PROTECTING TIBETANS’ RELIGIOUS FREEDOM | We must stop the CCP from ending thousands of years of Tibetan Buddhist tradition by hijacking the institution of the Dalai Lama to try to control Tibetans.
