The 19th International Women's Studies Foundation Conference in UC Berkeley


What
:
"The Essential Needs of Iranian Woman Today"

ISAA is proud to be a co-sponsor of The 19th International Women's Studies Foundation Conference in UC Berkeley.

Despite a myriad of social and legal setbacks in the last thirty years wherein Iranian women lost many of the rights they had attained in the past 100 years, they have continuously strived to improve their social and political status.


Consequently they have established their presence in different spheres of life, particularly that of civil society.


This conference will examine the socio-political needs of the Iranian woman in regards to ethnicity, gender, religion, class background, sexuality, and sexual orientation.
