Encyclopedia > Free Tibet movement

The Free Tibet movement is a worldwide movement with the goal of helping Tibet separate from People's Republic of China, be it full Tibetan independence or true autonomy under the PRC. Many in the movement see the Government of Tibet in exile as the true leaders of the Tibetan people. Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama, and thus the spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism, supports the movement. However, he points out that, in today's world, which country's borders the Tibetan people live within is not as important as whether or not they are truly free.
