Branch Sections
The Branch Sections placed under the DIIR are:
- Tibetan Computer Resource Centre (TCRC)
The Centre's mission is to harness information technology to provide a
medium of communication between the CTA and the Tibetan communities and
rest of the world. TCRC initially (founded as the Common Publishing
Centre) aimed to impart basic computer knowledge and desktop publishing
skills to Tibetan youth. It was the first in Dharamsala with Internet
facilities (1993). It manages the CTA's network it built in 1997, and
now, also oversees the introduction of Internet in the Tibetan
settlements in exile.
- Narthang Press
Initially the
Narthang Press was meant to publish the monthly Tibetan news bulletin,
Sheja. However, over the years, it has expanded and today it prints, in
addition to Sheja, Tibetan Freedom, Tibetan Bulletin (both English and
Chinese) and all other publications of the DIIR and other departments
and offices of the CTA.
