28th December 2022 - In a historic vote, members of the UN Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) voted to remove Iran from this group.
The landmark decision was made after heated debates since it was unprecedented for the UN to expel a member state from its commissions.
The Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) is the principal global intergovernmental body exclusively dedicated to the promotion of gender equality and the empowerment of women.
On April 19, 2021, the 65th session of the Commission on the Status of Women announced the election of the Iranian regime in the Commission for a 4-year term, from 2022 to 2026.
The regime’s membership in CSW insulted Iranian women who struggled to regain their rights for more than four decades against the medieval mullahs’ regime.
Since then, the Iranian Resistance and international human rights groups have kept calling for the removal of the Iranian regime from the Commission on the Status of Women.
