The Xinjiang Victims Database
The Xinjiang Victims Database is an independent documentation platform designed to collect and store records of ethnic minority citizens in Xinjiang, who have been locked up in camps, prisons and detention centres, had their documents confiscated and movement restricted, or been subject to forced labour. The records also include children whose parents have been detained and who have been placed in boarding schools or orphanages.
In addition to individual victim entries, the database also includes:
Direct accounts from the survivors and witnesses of Xinjiang's mass incarcerations
An interactive map that links known camps and prisons to documented victims
The ability to filter and export victim entries based on different criteria
The Xinjiang Data Project
The Xinjiang Data Project employs a range of materials, from open-source satellite images to empirical research, to analyze the ongoing human rights abuses against non-Han populations in Xinjiang. Drawing on open source data including satellite imagery, Chinese and Uyghur-language documents, official government statistics and a range of authoritative reports and academic studies, the project focuses on the utilization of surveillance technologies to police non-Han communities, the proliferation of the “re-education campaign”, and forced labour practices within the supply chain.
