NCRI Women's Committee
We work extensively with Iranian women outside the country and maintain a permanent contact with women inside Iran. The Women’s Committee is actively involved with many women’s rights organizations and NGO’s and the Iranian diaspora. The committee is a major source of much of the information received from inside Iran with regards to women. Attending UN Human Rights Council meetings and other international or regional conferences on women’s issues, and engaging in a relentless battle against the Iranian regime’s misogyny are part of the activities of members and associates of the committee.

Episode 11
In a move that has sparked outrage among civil society and human rights advocates, Iranian state media reported on Sunday, April 20, that a new agreement has been signed between Iran’s Chief of Police (The State Security Force), Ahmad Reza Radan, and the Minister of Education, Alireza Kazemi. The memorandum grants the SSF new authority within the education system, allowing them to enforce Mandatory hijab regulations in schools.
At the signing ceremony, Education Minister Alireza Kazemi openly pledged allegiance to the notorious police chief, referring to himself as a "proud soldier" of Radan. Kazemi described violation of "hijab and chastity" as cultural "threats" that require targeted educational and cultural interventions.
