Dear friends,
It is with joy and pride that I welcome you to the Worldwide Portal of the Uyghur Diaspora, created by the Uygur Halk Derneği Association. Our association, officially registered in Antalya, Turkey, actively works to preserve, develop, and promote Uyghur culture, language, traditions, and historical heritage.
In recent months, Uygur Halk Derneği has participated in numerous cultural events, meetings, and initiatives dedicated to Uyghur history, culture, and identity. Thanks to the support of the diaspora and the active involvement of the community, these events have received wide public attention and confirmed the importance of our joint work. Community unity and respect for culture are the foundation of our future.
As the Chair of the Association, I firmly believe that the strength of the Uyghur people lies in unity, mutual support, and respect for our roots. Every project, initiative, and meeting contributes to preserving Uyghur identity and building a strong community. Even a small collaborative step can lead to significant change.
Our mission is to unite the Uyghur diaspora, develop cultural and educational connections across generations and countries, and create sustainable platforms for engagement. We deserve to be heard, respected, and proud of our heritage.
In the near future, Uygur Halk Derneği plans to implement new initiatives, including:
-
cultural gatherings and events;
-
workshops and presentations;
-
educational programs and online webinars.
These projects will provide spaces for communication, creativity, and cultural exchange, as well as serve as a bridge between peoples and cultures.
We invite everyone to join our cultural, educational, and volunteer projects, contribute to the development of the Uyghur community, and support our initiatives. Your participation inspires us and helps us move forward.
I sincerely thank all members of the Association for their activity, trust, and dedication. It is thanks to you that we achieve results we can truly be proud of.
We remain open to ideas, suggestions, and dialogue. Your opinion matters, and we will continue to work on strengthening the Uyghur community and preserving our culture.
Sincerely,
Zakirjan Osman
Chair of the Uygur Halk Derneği, Antalya
