- BASIS Independent Advisor: Jason Meyer
This project seeks to investigate ongoing genocides, with a particular emphasis on the Uyghur genocide and how the Chinese government censors information about it.

Furthermore, I will provide insights into the lived experiences of those affected by the Uyghur genocide and explore the reasons behind the lack of widespread discourse on this specific issue.
