USCIRF Spotlight PodcastU.S. Policy Addressing China’s FoRB Abuses against UyghursThe Chinese government under Xi Jinping placed an estimated one million Uyghurs in concentration camps, subjecting them to forced labor and other horrific abuses. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has also destroyed or modified mosques all as part of a “sinicization” policy to assimilate by force or to eliminate perceived non-CCP influences and ethnic minority communities. U.S. government responses have included sanctions; legislation, such as the Uyghur Human Rights Policy Act and the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act; and the determination that the CCP is committing “genocide against the predominantly Muslim Uyghurs and other ethnic and religious minority groups...

The Divide'My father has been arrested. I don’t know what’s going to happen.' — Jewher Ilham on the last time she saw her father, Ilham Tohti (feat. Jewher Ilham) - Part 212 years ago, Jewher Ilham, the daughter of prominent imprisoned Uyghur economist Ilham Tohti, watched her father taken away by Chinese authorities at Beijing International Airport. At her father’s insistence, she boarded a plane bound for the United States. That was the last time she ever saw him.
In the years since, Jewher has endured Beijing’s psychological manipulation, repeatedly being lured with false promises of a reunion with her father. Instead of giving in, she chose a path of advocacy—dedicating her career to researching forced labor and speaking out on behalf of her father and the Uy...

The Divide'I will forever fight for you, dad.' (feat. Jewher Ilham) – Part 1On January 15, 2014, Beijing police arrested Ilham Tohti at his home and shut down Uighurbiz.org, the Uyghur language website he had created. He was held in pre-trial detention for eight months before being sentenced to life in prison.
The website, also known as Uyghur Online, was published in Chinese and Uyghur. It focused on social issues and on building understanding between Han Chinese and Uyghurs, with contributors from both communities. You would think authorities would encourage this kind of work to ease tensions. But instead, in a nonsensical decision, Chinese authorities sentenced its founder to life in...

China's government has long had an uneasy relationship with Uyghurs’ distinct Turkic Muslim identity, and has tried in various ways over time to control them, reduce and dilute their population, and make them assimilate.But lately, it’s gotten much worse. Within the past decade, about a million Uyghurs – almost one in 10 – were sent to reeduca...

Welt.Macht.ChinaMenschenrechte weltweit: Warum will China Sonderrechte?Menschenrechte sind universell. Trotzdem besteht China auf einer Sonderrolle. Beim Schutz der Menschenrechte gebe es kein weltweites Einheitsmodell, argumentiert etwa Chinas neuer Außenminister Qin Gang. Das widerspricht allerdings der Grundidee der Allgemeinen Erklärung der Menschenrechte.
Als die Vereinten Nationen die Menschenrechte vor 75 Jahren formulierten, war maßgeblich auch der Chinese P. C. Chang beteiligt. Ihm war es wichtig, dass in den Menschenrechten nicht nur vermeintlich "westliche" Konzepte berücksichtigt werden, sondern auch chinesisch-konfuzianische Gedanken. Heute will Chinas Staats- und Parteiführung davon nichts mehr wissen.

From fashion to food, workers are subjected to forced labor in the production of our everyday items. So, what can we do about it? As individuals, changing our shopping choices, even stopping buying certain products altogether can feel like the most effective response. Governments might choose to implement import bans to prevent products tainted with forced labor from reaching their shelves like the recent Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act in the U.S. But are boycotts and import bans always best – and can we end slavery using these tools?

Nothing is ForeignCan a new law stop China's forced labour?On June 21, a new labour law comes into effect in the U.S. requiring all importing businesses to prove that nothing in their supply chain is made with forced labour in the Chinese province of Xinjiang.
