Voice of Tibet states that its goal is to provide news on Tibetan life, culture, events, and issues both inside Tibet and in the global Tibetan exile community. They air the Dalai Lama's latest public speeches in serialised form. With a portion of programming targeting Chinese listeners, they report on democracy movements in China. They carry reports on environmental issues, health care (both traditional and modern), and global affairs.[3]

Broadcasts of Voice of Tibet reach China and Tibet through transmitters in the Indian Ocean as well as in Russia and Central Asia.[4] The PRC attempts to jam signals from the Voice of Tibet from reaching Tibetans with Communist China.[citation needed]
