China is a bit confusing to me with religion. They officially are atheist, but permit nearly any religion as long as you don't attempt to convert people, or replace Chinese architecture and symbolism with religious symbolism. Except for local mythology of course, although it was banned in past years and only recently promoted by the government. Most interesting thing I read recently is that minors aren't allowed in religious buildings, presumably because they can't decide for themselves yet, but I might not understand the nuance of that law.
Thats all to say, I have no idea what's the right move for religion moving forward, just in general. I generally think its a bad thing but that could be an American perspective.
I also have no idea what should be done for the Uyghurs, and I'm not sure if I'm entirely convinced that limiting a cultures religion at all is by default cultural genocide.
I know nothing about darfur though, though it sounds familiar.
