Protecting Human Rights, Creating Opportunity: Empowering Iranian Newcomers in Canada
About this Event

This event is dedicated to supporting people from Iran who are building new lives in Canada, including newcomers, immigrants, and international Iranian students. Our goal is to open access to resources, create meaningful connections, and ensure that individuals from the Iranian community feel seen, supported, and empowered.


Why this event matters

As a women‑led organization, IWB believes it is essential to step up in Canada and stand firmly for human rights and gender equality globally. Supporting the Iranian community is part of our commitment to amplifying voices, protecting freedoms, and ensuring that women and marginalized groups have access to safety, opportunity, and dignity. This event reflects our belief that local action contributes to global change.


What the event offers
  • Community support for Iranian newcomers navigating settlement challenges
  • Career guidance for job‑seekers, students, and professionals
  • Resource navigation including housing, mental‑health support, legal information, and financial literacy
  • Networking opportunities with employers, mentors, and community leaders
  • Safe‑space conversations for those affected by the situation in Iran and seeking emotional support
  • Student support for international Iranian students needing care, connection, and career pathways

Purpose

This gathering is designed to bring together service providers, employers, community organizations, and allies to ensure that Iranian immigrants and students have access to the tools, opportunities, and support they need to thrive in Canada. It also reinforces IWB’s broader mission to advance human rights, gender equality, and social justice through community‑driven action.

If you want, I can also craft a short promotional blurb, a social‑media version, or a formal grant‑ready description.
