Tibet Justice Center (TJC), supported by the Boston University Asylum and Human Rights Law Clinic, has submitted a report to the UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights on China’s detrimental policies and practices in Tibet which effect the rights to self-determination, non-discrimination, work, health, education, adequate standard of living, and cultural life of the Tibetan people. We followed this up recently with a trip to Geneva to brief the Committee further on the main concerns to help frame their initial discussions with China, before the main review in 2014.
