Kontakto is a magazine in Esperanto published by TEJO and supported by Universal Esperanto Association (UEA). It started in 1963 though a proposal of the UEA committee by Humphrey Tonkin, who became its first editor in chief and who provided a magazine that touched on topics of interest to Esperanto youth. The magazine often used the slogan "In Esperanto, but not about Esperanto."

In the early 1980s, Anna Lowenstein became the editor. Her contributions to the magazine included easy-to-read articles, which concerned serious topics, but were written in simple language suitable for beginning Esperanto learners.

Starting in 2002, Eugenia Zvereva has been its editor in chief.
