News Center- Women all around the world make preparations to take to the streets on the one year anniversary of the murder of Jina Mahsa Amini and the ‘Jin, Jiyan, Azadi (Women, Life, Freedom)’ uprising. The ‘Jin, Jiyan Azadî’ Initiative has announced that it will launch a social media hashtag campaign on September 16.

"The Islamic Republic of Iran legitimizes all barbaric practices against women by using law. The Jin, Jiyan Azadi Initiative is a response to the Islamic Republic of Iran, which has institutionalized itself with a patriarchal mindset and constantly suppressed women's freedom movements. Everyone should know and be sure that the Iranian regime cannot silence the movements defending freedom and democracy,” said the statement released by the initiative.

Call for participation in the campaign

“The slogan ‘Jin, Jiyan, Azadi’ is a slogan that summarizes the paradigm of Kurdish leader Abdullah Öcalan based on democracy, ecology, women's freedom,” the statement said, “The uprising that started in Iran and Eastern Kurdistan following the killing of Jina Mahsa Amini on September 16, 2022 has become a universal revolution that exceeds borders built by colonialists. This revolution has been a great hope for all movements defending freedom. The revolution of the 21st century started by women chanting the slogan ‘Jin, Jiyan, Azadi’. This slogan is the slogan of all oppressed groups.

“We call all women and all people, who defend democracy and freedom, to participate in the social media hashtag campaign on the first anniversary of the Jin Jiyan Azadi Revolution.”
