Unrelenting self-immolation protests across Tibet:
China's harsh policies in Tibet, restricting freedoms and basic human rights, have intensified Tibetan grievances and exacerbated the resentment felt across Tibet.
This growing tragedy, if left unchecked, could spiral even further into a nation-wide crisis.
Sixty years of China’s rule has created a crisis in occupied Tibet. Repressive policies and the severe crackdown have provoked an unprecedented wave of self-immolations by Tibetan monks, nuns and laypeople, the vast majority of whom have lost their lives.
A surge in resistance protests, with demonstrators calling for freedom in Tibet and the return of the Dalai Lama, were met with Chinese security forces opening fire on peaceful demonstrators, killing at least five Tibetans and seriously injuring many more. To learn more, read our online publication Resistance in Tibet: Self-Immolation and Protest.
We demand a coordinated international response by world leaders to condemn China’s repressive measures in the affected regions and across Tibet, and to institute multi-lateral mechanisms to advocate for the Tibetan people.
