Tibet on Fire has already begun the task of collecting and verifying information about what’s going on in Tibet from news sources, NGOs, Tibetan and Chinese blogs, government sources, and social media.
Here’s some of the information we’ve collected together, which we’re constantly updating:
- A detailed list of every Tibetan self-immolation from February 2009 to present
- A comparison of the different lists of self-immolators published by NGOs and journalists
- The number of self-immolations to date, broken down by category
This data is already being used by Al Jazeera, the Tibetan Center for Human Rights and Democracy, and Free Tibet.
