This is a website designed for SFT chapters to share their information and actions with the world. SFT chapters are located everywhere, from India to Mexico and it is crucial that they draw support and inspiration from other chapters.

If you have done anything to benefit the Tibetan people in their struggle for freedom, we would like you to post it here. For instructions on how to get your action on this website, email sft.wiki@gmail.com

SFT MISSION:
Students for a Free Tibet (SFT) works in solidarity with the Tibetan people in their struggle for freedom and independence. We are a chapter-based network of young people and activists around the world. Through education, grassroots organizing, and non-violent direct action, we campaign for Tibetans’ fundamental right to political freedom. Our role is to empower and train youth as leaders in the worldwide movement for social justice.

SFT VISION:
In our work for Tibetan independence we also aim to inspire and enable people, especially youth, to create a just and equitable world, free of oppression, in which there is respect for the earth and all living things.

SFT VALUES:
We believe every individual has the right to be free. Those who enjoy freedom have the power and also the responsibility to make positive change in the world. We seek to create opportunities to inspire, enable and motivate all people to see that change is possible. We value creativity in every pursuit and we believe it is essential to have fun while working towards our vision of a just and equitable world.

Pro-Tibet or call-to-action groups:

Beijing 2008: Where Will You Be?
The campaign «2008-FreeTibet» uses the Beijing Olympics to pressure the Chinese authorities for a fundamental change in occupied Tibet. By hosting the 2008 Games in Beijing, the Chinese leadership hopes to present China as a free and open society to the outside world. The reality is very different.
Goodsearch.com, To support Tibetans.
Use goodsearch.com. Choose this as a charity: "Students for Free Tibet". Support an ancient culture’s peaceful struggle against cultural genocide. The money can be sent to India to support the Tibetans in Exile. It matters.
Free Tenzin Delek Rinpoche
On December 2, 2002 Lobsang Dhondup and Tenzin Delek Rinpoche, a very respected Buddhist leader, were sentenced to death in Tibet. They are accused of being involved in bomb explosions in eastern Tibet, but the Chinese government has not produced any proof. It is likely they are being targeted because of their political and cultural beliefs and activities.
FACEJAM THE PLANET!!!
On January 26th 2007 SFT launched FACEJAM THE PLANET!!! to saturate public spaces with Tenzin Delek Rinpoche's (TDR’s) image. China hopes his plight and the plight of the Tibetan people will vanish forever, but we’re not going to let that happen by ensuring his face is seen EVERYWHERE!

March 10 Tibetan Uprising Day
Tibetans took to the streets of Lhasa on March 10, 1959 because they wanted the Chinese to leave our homeland. Tens of thousands of Tibetans risked their lives to protect our nation and our beloved leader, His Holiness the Dalai Lama. They gave of themselves so that we may live and continue to fight.
