Rouhani’s election is encouraging, but requires women’s rights advocates to seize the opportunities “I think there’s an opportunity for dialogue and discourse… communication and collaboration between civil society and government. But I don’t solely count on him, his government, or any other government to push for and advance women’s rights. What happens with the Rouhani presidency is largely, if not entirely, dependent on how women use this opportunity [and] also how we reach out to the public to create momentum… I don’t expect any miracles from Rouhani but if as promised he lifts restrictions on civil society we will have an opportunity to advocate for women’s rights.”
