Khalil Helali, Tehran’s police chief said, “Women can work in the kitchen of traditional restaurants but employing women in the public areas of these coffee shops are prohibited….In general, employing women in coffee shops is banned. Women can request permits for coffee shops but must name men as their caretakers in these public places because the law bans women from entering or working in coffee shops “.

We work extensively with Iranian women outside the country and maintain a permanent contact with women inside Iran. The Women’s Committee is actively involved with many women’s rights organizations and NGO’s and the Iranian diaspora.
The committee is a major source of much of the information received from inside Iran with regards to women. Attending UN Human Rights Council meetings and other international or regional conferences on women’s issues and engaging in a relentless battle against the Iranian regime’s misogyny are part of the activities of members and associates of the committee.
