Iran Human Rights (IHRNGO); October 6, 2023: Iran Human Rights welcomes the Nobel Peace Prize being awarded to HRD Narges Mohammadi and hopes it will draw the international community’s attention to the Iranian people’s struggle for their fundamental human rights.

Director, Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam said: “For more than 25 years, Narges Mohammadi has been fighting against gender apartheid, the death penalty and discrimination against minorities, and paid the price for it. Awarding the Nobel Peace Prize to Narges is a recognition of the Iranian people’s struggle for their fundamental rights. Awarding it on the day that Armita Geravand is fighting for her life in a coma because of flouting mandatory hijab laws, is a reminder of the oppression that Iranian girls and women face on a daily basis by the Islamic Republic.”
