25 November 2024

This report provides an in-depth analysis of the execution of women in Iran between November 2023 and November 2024. It highlights systemic human rights violations, focusing on the intersection of socio-economic vulnerabilities, gender-based discrimination, and the application of harsh judicial practices.

Prepared for the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, the report sheds light on how systemic inequalities, lack of fair trial procedures, and judicial repression disproportionately affect women, particularly those from marginalized communities. By examining the broader patterns of these executions, the report aims to draw attention to the structural issues that perpetuate violence against women in Iran.

Purpose of the Report

This report has been prepared to document these injustices, raise international awareness, and advocate for the abolition of the death penalty in Iran. It aims to provide a foundation for action by human rights organizations, policymakers and advocates working to protect vulnerable women and address systemic abuses.
