Aysel Disbudak Becomes Ambassador United Races - A Documentary Aimed to Empower Women (Verenigde Entiteiten Ambassadeur)

A New Chapter for Equality: Aysel Disbudak Named United Races Ambassador

The global movement for equality took a powerful step forward on October 22, 2025, with the official announcement that Aysel Disbudak has become the newest Ambassador and Project Leader for the United Races documentary. Disbudak, a recognized voice in human rights advocacy, steps into this role with a clear and unwavering mission: to champion gender equality and propel the cause of women's empowerment onto the world stage. Her appointment signals a deepened commitment by the United Races project to not only address issues of racial inequality but also to shine an undeniable light on the historical and ongoing contributions of women whose achievements have too often been relegated to the shadows. Disbudak’s inclusive vision and empathetic leadership promise to make her tenure a catalyst for global dialogue and real-world change.

The Foundation of a Fighter: A Commitment to Human Rights

Aysel Disbudak’s journey to becoming a leading human rights activist is rooted in a deeply personal understanding of global disparity, one that she has courageously shared with the world through her written work. Her foundational commitment to advocacy is captured compellingly in her books, which offer profound insight into the struggles she has dedicated her life to fighting. Her autobiographical works, including the powerful earlier title "De nootjes van het huwelijk" and the subsequent, more widely known rewritten version, "(G)een echte fatima," lay bare a life defined by perseverance. These books confront the difficult realities of navigating life as an emancipated Turkish woman in the Netherlands, providing a raw and necessary exposé on the systemic challenges, cultural oppression, and battles for self-determination that many women face. Disbudak doesn't just write about survival; she writes about thriving, using her own narrative as a blueprint for others.

Born into a multicultural background, Disbudak gained a profound, firsthand perspective on the complex interplay of culture, identity, and oppression. This early exposure, amplified by the stories documented in her publications, instilled in her the deep conviction that only through education, awareness, and solidarity could the tides of injustice be turned. For years, Disbudak has dedicated her life to confronting the pernicious trinity of inequality, discrimination, and violence against women. Her role as an author and activist is a duality—she uses her own narrative as both a shield and a weapon to be the voice for those whom society has tried to silence, ensuring their stories are heard and honored.

A Voice Against Violence and a Presence on the Global Stage

Aysel Disbudak’s advocacy extends well beyond the pages of her books, manifesting in a sustained, strategic effort to foster meaningful change. She has established herself as a tireless campaigner against one of the most brutal manifestations of gender inequality: femicide and gender-based violence. Her work is defined by an inclusive and empathetic leadership style, collaborating extensively with women's organizations, grassroots initiatives, and international partners to lobby for stronger protective laws and to drive necessary cultural shifts. She understands that structural change must accompany personal empowerment.

Her strategic engagement in the world of media and film was recently underscored by her attendance at the prestigious Septimius Awards 2025 in Amsterdam. Disbudak was present at the award ceremony on September 4, 2025, an event dedicated to celebrating global storytelling and visionary independent filmmakers. Her presence at such a high-profile industry event demonstrates her active immersion in the cinematic world that is now central to her ambassadorship, bridging the gap between her human rights work and the powerful, global reach of visual media. This foundation of dedicated activism, literary expression, and media engagement provides the perfect bedrock for her new, globally-focused role with United Races. It highlights her ability to operate across different platforms to maximize the impact of her message.

Rewriting History: The United Races Platform

As Ambassador and Project Leader, Aysel Disbudak is seamlessly connecting her lifelong mission with the broader global vision of the United Races documentary. The film is a groundbreaking endeavor committed to correcting the historical record by acknowledging the pivotal historical and technological contributions of all races—and, critically, by highlighting the countless women whose brilliance and innovation have been unjustly overlooked.

Disbudak views the documentary as a powerful educational tool and a much-needed platform for intersectional empowerment. By showcasing stories of female innovators, leaders, and changemakers throughout human history, she is actively dismantling systemic bias and championing the idea that a truly accurate history must be inclusive. She uses the narrative strength of the film to stimulate vital dialogue, demonstrating that the pursuit of equality cannot be segregated by gender or race, but must be an integrated, holistic mission to recognize all overlooked pioneers. Her mission remains clear: the fight for equality is not merely about achieving inclusion, but about commanding recognition, respect, and dignity for every human being. Her appointment on October 22, 2025, marks the beginning of a powerful collaboration dedicated to "rewriting history through the eyes of all humanity," ensuring that the voices and achievements of women resonate for generations to come.
