Join the City of West Hollywood’s Human Rights Speakers Series for a conversation discussing the violations against women’s rights by the Islamic Government of Iran. Women’s rights in Iran are severely restricted. Women confront serious discrimination and inequality on issues such as marriage, divorce, child custody, employment, inheritance, and political office. In recognition of Women’s History Month, this panel discussion will feature Iranian Women from different religions and cultures to discuss these pressing issues and injustices.

Special Guest Panelists:
Naeema Eckfeld, Secretary of the Spiritual Assembly of the Baha'is of the City of Los Angeles
Mitra Samani, Board of Director & California Director, Women’s Freedom Forum
Elham Yaghoubian, Founder, Iran-Israel Alliance of Nations
Moderated by City of West Hollywood Mayor Pro Tempore Sepi Shyne
