Join us in welcoming speaker Dr. Rezvan Moghaddan.
The Women, Life, Freedom movement in Iran represents a groundbreaking initiative propelled by women advocating for their rights, autonomy, and liberation within the constraints of a deeply patriarchal society. Rooted in the rich history of Iranian feminism and catalyzed by contemporary socio-political realities, this movement has emerged as a potent force challenging the status quo and envisioning a more equitable future.
About the speaker: Dr. Rezvan Moghaddam is a distinguished lecturer, researcher, and women's rights activist with over four decades of dedicated experience in driving social change. As an esteemed member of the Iranian women's rights movement, she has played a pivotal role in establishing numerous associations, groups, and committees aimed at empowering women across various domains including peace, environment, health, and gender issues such as violence against women.
