According to the special rapporteurs, the program appears to be intended at coercively integrating Tibetans into China’s majority Han culture, with obligatory Mandarin education and little culturally relevant instruction to the Buddhist-majority Himalayan region.

In a recent published article by NDTV, in an issue of United States on China, according to a separate report released this year by UN experts, hundreds of thousands of Tibetans have been driven out of traditional rural life and into low-skill “vocational training” as a pretext for undermining their identity.

Tibet has gone back and forth between independence and Chinese domination over the centuries, with China claiming to have “peacefully liberated” the rugged plateau in 1951 and bringing infrastructure and education to the previously undeveloped province.
