World Uyghur Youth Congress

The World Uyghur Congress (WUC) (Uyghur: دۇنيا ئۇيغۇر قۇرۇلتىيى, Дунйа Уйғур Қурултийи‎, ULY: Dunya Uyghur Qurultiyi; Chinese: 世界维吾尔代表大会; pinyin: Shìjiè Wéiwúěr Dàibiǎo Dàhuì) is an international organisation of exiled Uyghur groups that aspires to "represent the collective interest of the Uyghur people" both inside and outside of the Xinjiang Autonomous Region of the People's Republic of China. The World Uyghur Congress describes itself as a nonviolent and peaceful movement that opposes what it considers to be the Chinese occupation of East Turkestan, and advocates rejection of totalitarianism, religious intolerance and terrorism as an instrument of policy. The Congress is funded in part by the National Endowment for Democracy or NED of US.

The Congress was formed in mid-April 2004 at a meeting in Munich, Germany, as a collection of various exiled Uyghur groups including the World Uyghur Youth Congress (WUYC) and East Turkestan National Congress (ETNC).Rebiya Kadeer is the current president, elected in 2006. Dolkun Isa is current General Secretary, reelected in 2006. A prominent businesswoman and political activist, Kadeer has been in exile in the United States since 2005 after six years' imprisonment in China for "leaking state secrets".
