Hi everyone,

Sharing this non-research activity with this list since I think there are many people in this community who may be interested in support for women and girls in Iran.

Hi everyone,

In light of what is happening in Iran with regards to school girls, Schulich students have organized an event for IWD. Will you be able to send this event invitation to people you think who might be interested?

Thanks,

Laleh
