Alabama is comprised of 23 million acres of forestland, of which family forest landowners (FFLs) own 56 % of that acreage. Therefore, FFLs are vital to maintaining the quality and diversity of Alabama's forests. However, FFLs possess varying attitudes towards management, value their land for different reasons, and have differing management objectives. In addition, FFLs are comprised of diverse backgrounds, own vastly different acreages, and fall …
A dialogical appraisal of diasporic women’s work to impact change in Iran
How do women in the Iranian diaspora contribute to change in their homeland? Drawing on narrative accounts from activists and advocates, this paper offers insight into whether and how change occurs in relation to diasporic initiatives.

Iran's Feminist School in the Diaspora
This article explores the mechanisms behind the demobilization of the Feminist School, the self-proclaimed 'intellectual wing' of the Iranian women's movement, which was established as an online forum in 2008. For a short time, the Feminist School was at the forefront of framing the Iranian women's movement and provided the conceptual tools for its strategy setting. In the years following the disputed presidential election of 2009, however, many …
Registered NGOs and advocacy for women in Iran
Registered women’s non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in the Islamic Republic of Iran occupy a critical space in the socio-political landscape. They are neither government insiders nor anti-regime activists, instead advocating for incremental change within the constraints of the system. Drawing on interviews with NGO leaders, this article sheds light on the objectives and activities of five registered women’s organisations as they work in the …
Human Rights and Agents of Change in Iran
This article examines two approaches to the promotion of human rights in the Islamic Republic of Iran through a theory of change lens. One, the political reform movement of the late 1990s, which promoted the principles of pluralism, civil society, and the rule of law via a top-down and inside track approach. Two, the One Million Signatures Campaign of the mid-2000s, which called for an end to all discriminatory laws against women via a bottom-up …
Impact and significance of the 2016 ‘Campaign to Change the Male Face of Parliament’ in Iran
Iranian women have never represented more than 5.9% of sitting parliamentarians in the Islamic Republic of Iran. This compares poorly with relevant regional and global averages. In the lead up to the 2016 parliamentary elections, the women’s movement took action to address the low representation of women in the legislature by launching the ‘Campaign to Change the Male Face of Parliament’. The Campaign did not reach its goal of achieving 50 seats …
The First International Conference of the Nobel Women’s Initiative
The Nobel Women’s Initiative (NWI) was formed in August 2006. It was a response to a suggestion by Iranian laureate Shirin Ebadi that women recipients of the Peace Prize should collectively endeavor to use the power and influence concomitant with being Nobel laureates to advance the cause of women internationally, by bringing their voices and experiences to the direct attention of the international community and media sources. NWI represents an a…
Women's rights in the muslim world
The issue of gender inequality is an acute problem in countries where women's lives are governed by laws, and configured by customs and traditions, said to derive from Islam. In the second half of the 20th century, two Muslim feminist paradigms have emerged in response to this malaise. Islamic feminists aim to establish women's rights within the Islamic framework by re-interpreting Islam's holy sources. In contrast, secular feminists challenge th…
