RACE FOR TIBET

In 2008 Beijing will host the Olympics. Race For Tibet is a campaign aimed at putting pressure on China. The purpose: getting Chinese leaders to engage in dialogue with the Dalai Lama about the future of Tibet. First of all, the widespread violation of human rights must stop. Also, that the Tibetans are asking for autonomy within the Republic of China. At the festival you can find Race For Tibet at appearances by the Tibetan soccer team, during interesting panel discussions and at the opening of the sports café.
