Hazara Resource Platform
Sites
The Hazara Digital Heritage Archive is an initiative aimed at preserving the rich cultural, historical, and social heritage of the Hazara people through a comprehensive digital platform. This archive will collect, digitize, and showcase a wide range of materials, including oral histories, photographs, manuscripts, and multimedia artifacts, making them accessible to both academic researchers and the general public. By leveraging cutting-edge digital tools, the archive ensures long-term preservation and broad accessibility of Hazara heritage, helping to protect it from potential loss due to ongoing persecution and displacement. The project also fosters global awareness, promoting the study of Hazara history, culture, and resilience.
The Hazara History Digital Collection: Scholarly Studies of Persecution, Crisis, and Resilience is a groundbreaking born-digital archive that serves as the first comprehensive scholarly effort to document the historical experiences of the Hazara people. This collection fills a crucial gap in historical scholarship by focusing on the persecution, marginalization, and cultural resilience of the Hazara community, a topic that has been largely under-researched. It covers key periods in Hazara history, including the genocidal campaigns under King Abdul Rahman Khan, the Soviet invasion, and ongoing persecution under the Taliban. The collection will feature contributions from scholars across a range of disciplines, such as history, political science, migration studies, anthropology, and human rights, providing new perspectives on these underexplored topics.
