Uyghur PEN

Uyghur PEN’s website is an invaluable online resource for anyone interested in Uyghur literature, covering the latest information on the ongoing persecution of Uyghur writers, sharing their work, and campaigning for their freedom.

Uyghur PEN offers three webinars on Uyghur literature and the impact of cultural genocide on Uyghur identity. The first webinar celebrates International Mother Language Day and includes discussion on how to sustain Uyghur culture in the diaspora. The second and third webinars bring together well-known Uyghur writers to read poetry and discuss the importance of Uyghur literature and language. 

Uyghur PEN also raises awareness of China’s assault on Uyghur identity and highlights Uyghur writers on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube.
