Tibetan News Hub - A unified news platform for the Tibetan diaspora

For Tibetans living across the globe, staying informed has never been simple. News about our community is scattered across dozens of websites—Phayul, Tibet.net, Radio Free Asia, Voice of Tibet, International Campaign for Tibet, and many more. Unlike other communities with centralized media or national broadcasts, Tibetans in the diaspora must actively hunt for information. It doesn’t arrive in a feed. It doesn’t come to us. We go to it—or we miss it entirely.

This creates a gap. Some community members know what’s happening. Others don’t. Information becomes fragmented, and with it, so does our sense of shared experience.

Tibetan News Hub was built to close that gap.

One Place for Everything

Tibetan News Hub is a free platform that automatically collects news from over 15 trusted Tibetan news sources worldwide and presents them in a single, clean feed. No more jumping between websites. No more wondering if you missed something important.

Each English-language article comes with an AI-generated summary—just 20 to 30 words—so readers can scan the day’s headlines in seconds and choose which stories deserve a deeper look. Tibetan-language articles are included as well, presented in their original form to preserve authenticity.

The platform also features Daily Briefings: a synthesized overview of the top stories each day, perfect for busy schedules.

Built for the Community

Beyond news, Tibetan News Hub offers features designed to strengthen our connection to culture and each other:

  • Knowledge Quizzes — Fun, interactive quizzes on Tibetan history and culture to test and expand what you know
  • Weather & Time — Real-time information for cities where Tibetans live, from Dharamsala to New York
  • Smart Deduplication — When multiple outlets cover the same story, you see it once, not five times

Built by the Community, for the Community

Tibetan News Hub was built by Tibetan technologist Thutpen Chakrishar, who also created Genla.org and other platforms and tools designed to serve the Tibetan diaspora. This is not a commercial product—it’s a community initiative, open-source and free to use.

Information Is Power

A connected community is a stronger community. When we share the same information, we can have the same conversations. We can act together. We can support each other with a common understanding of what’s happening in our world.

Tibetan News Hub is more than a convenience—it’s a small step toward unity.
