A
Celebration of Iranian Women -
International Women's day
8
March 2008
PROGRAM
Watch it LIVE on E2 Satellite channel (US and Canada)
OR
WWW.PAMTV.US
On March 8th 2008, International Women’s Day,
Association des Chercheurs Iraniens (ACI) will launch a year long
programme of celebrations to honour the courage and achievements of
Iranian women under oppression.
Faced with social and legal discrimination, as well
as cultural barriers, Iranian women have found creative and inspirational
ways of working towards gaining equal social and political rights. And
remarkably, despite facing extreme, many times violent, opposition against
their demands women have remained at the epicentre of social change.
Without a doubt, international awareness and
recognition of their achievements will offer them moral support and
relative protection. The focus of ACI’s roundtable is the important role
international organisations can play in supporting and empowering
grassroots organisations and NGOs in campaigning for equal rights. We
invite you to join us and look forward to meeting you on 8 March.
