Established in 1989 as the International Committee of Lawyers for Tibet. Dr. Michael van Walt van Praag, Legal Advisor to the Office of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, brought together a group of committed human rights lawyers to work on international law issues affecting the Tibetan people.

Helping the Tibetan people act as their own advocates is at the core of our work. As our knowledge, experience and team of professionals - lawyers and non-lawyers alike - has grown, we have taken on increasingly sophisticated work, from our own fact-finding missions to research on nonviolent solutions to civil conflicts between peoples and governments. All of our projects are geared towards helping the Tibetan people become prepared to take advantage of the opportunities for freedom that will come with time, change and hard work.
