Their common concern was that the world community, especially world governments, has failed in its responsibility to ensure that the basic human rights of Tibetan people are preserved and respected. This webinar was jointly organized by the Centre for Himalayan Asia Studies and Engagement (CHASE) and the Tibetan Youth Congress (TYC) from New Delhi to mark the 63rd Anniversary of the Tibetan people’s uprising against China’s Colonial Occupation.
