|  Dear friends, She'll get 148 lashes on her body, and spend nearly 4 decades in prison. This is the awful punishment Nasrin Sotoudeh will face for peacefully advocating for women's rights in Iran.
It's hard to even imagine the pain and suffering this brave woman will face, but our voices can help shine a light on this horror and help free Nasrin and others like her.
Nasrin was invited to advise the G7 on legislation to protect women, but was locked up when the meeting took place. If we ramp up pressure now, we can get those rich countries to call for the release of Nasrin --- and others like her -- using their diplomatic and economic leverage to end the global crackdown on women.
This could be big -- women's rights abusing governments like Iran and Saudi Arabia are desperate for trade with G7 countries like France and Germany, so their pressure will go a long way. Add your name now ahead of a key meeting -- Avaaz will work with Nasrin's G7 colleagues to deliver our call directly inside the room! Click to help Free Nasrin Nasrin has done what other lawyers would never dare. She's represented several women who were arrested after protesting the forced hijab law in Iran, journalists, high-profile rights activists, and even juveniles facing the death penalty.
Now her body will be whipped for it. And she'll be silenced for decades to come, just for standing up for what she believes in.
It's not just Iran. In Saudi Arabia, Loujain al-Hathloul, another brave women's rights activist, is in jail and has faced torture just for wanting to drive! But both Iran and Saudi rely on their relationships with the richest countries on Earth -- which is why pressure from G7 nations is so key to ending this crackdown.
If we can build enough pressure, we can get the G7 to call for Nasrin's release when they meet, and push them to commit to raising this in every meeting they have with countries that are cracking down on women. This could be an end to impunity for women's rights abusers -- so let's make it happen! Add your name and share this widely! Click to help Free Nasrin | | |
