Iran: Parvin Ardalan wins human
rights prize
February 13, 2008 (Women Living under Muslim Law) Women's human
rights defender Parvin Ardalan has received the Olof Palme Prize
for 2007. (WLUML Networkers)
The Olof Palme Prize for 2007 goes to Parvin Ardalan, who has succeeded
in making the demand for equal rights for men and women a central
part of the struggle for democracy in Iran.
As a result, the women’s movement for civil rights and liberties
has, to a great extent, spread geographically as well as socially.
Despite persecution, threats and harassment, Parvin Ardaln has been
persistent in her struggle and never compromised her ideals. Through
constantly more ingenious methods, she and her fellow sisters have
managed to increase the support for equal rights. The ongoing campaign
for a million signatures against discrimination is an excellent
example. Their intensive work deserves international recognition
as a path to democracy and peace in this region of turbulence and
conflict.
