The Uyghur Archive was initiated in 2023 by Uyghurs living in Europe. It exists to help readers understand the situation of the Uyghur people, publishing essays — on history, on culture, and on the documented policies of the present — written plainly and sourced carefully.

The archive is independent, carries no advertising, and asks nothing of its readers but attention.

German translations of our essays are available and can be requested by email. A contact address will be published here soon.
