LOCAL ORGANISATION
From Individual Action to Collective Impact – Building Local Solidarity Groups Individual actions matter, but collective action lasts longer and reaches further. Governments are rarely shaken by one-off protests.They pay attention to consistent, organised, and coordinated civic action. Even a small group, if organised well, can have an impact far beyond its size. Why Local Organisation Matters Work is shared, reducing burnout Messaging becomes consistent and credible Media and institutions respond more seriously Action continues even when attention fades Small, sustained groups are often the most effective. What Makes a Group Effective? You do not need a formal structure.A group of 5–10 people is enough if it has: A clear purpose Defined roles Regular communication Suggested Role Distribution To keep things simple, roles may include: 📰 Media contact (emails, follow-ups, interviews) 🏛️ Political outreach (letters to representatives, tracking replies) 📱 Social media coordination (timing, hashtags, messaging) 🧾 Documentation (secure storage […]

DOCUMENTATION & EVIDENCE
Documenting Human Rights Violations When Iran Is Offline Internet shutdowns are often used to erase evidence and silence victims.When this happens, people outside Iran can play a critical role. You can become the external memory — preserving facts so they cannot be denied or erased. Why Documentation Matters Without evidence, abuses are easily denied Journalists require verifiable information Courts and human rights mechanisms depend on documentation What is recorded today may become crucial years from now. What Can Be Collected? If you have access to information from inside Iran, the following materials may be documented: 🎙️ Voice messages 📱 Screenshots (messages, images, notices) 🧾 Testimonies from families or witnesses (text or audio) 📅 Time and location details, when safe and possible ⚠️ Important:Never pressure people inside Iran to send information or take risks. How to Store Information Securely Protecting data also protects lives. Recommended practices: Use Google Drive with a […]
Targeted Demonstrations
Turning Presence Into Impact Public demonstrations can be powerful tools — if they are purposeful and well-planned.Protests driven only by emotion, without clear messaging or documentation, are often ignored. The goal of a targeted demonstration is to: Be visible Deliver a clear message Attract media and political attention Where Should Demonstrations Take Place? Choose symbolic and strategic locations, not random ones. Examples (Wales): Outside the Senedd (Cardiff Bay) Near government buildings Outside major media offices If you are elsewhere, identify equivalent locations: Parliament or congress buildings Government departments Media headquarters Messaging Matters Your message should be: Short Clear Understandable to a non-Iranian audience Written in English Why English? Because your primary audience is: Journalists Policymakers The general public in your host country Suggested Protest Slogans (English) Use clear, readable signs with one message per placard: Internet blackout = massacre Silence is complicity Iran needs internet, not bullets No internet, no […]
MEDIA PRESSURE
Media Pressure – Engaging Local Media When Iran Is Silenced When internet access is cut in Iran, information disappears and violence often escalates beyond public view.Local media outside Iran play a crucial role in breaking this silence.

(Wales Examples) If you live in Wales, consider contacting: BBC Wales WalesOnline ITV Cymru Wales Western Mail If you live elsewhere, identify local or regional media in your own area (TV, online news, or newspapers). What Should You Say? Focus on clear, human-centred messages: Iranian communities abroad fear mass violence during internet shutdowns Families inside Iran lose […]
Political Pressure
Political Pressure – Taking Action When Iran Is Silenced During periods of widespread protests in Iran, the authorities repeatedly impose nationwide internet shutdowns. These blackouts are not technical failures; they are deliberate tools used to suppress civilians, conceal violence, and prevent documentation of human rights violations. When people inside Iran are silenced, Iranians and allies outside the country must act. One of the most effective and lawful ways to do this is through political pressure. Why Political Pressure Matters Elected officials respond to messages from residents and voters Internet shutdowns are recognised internationally as a violation of human rights Coordinated civic pressure can lead to: Official condemnations Targeted sanctions Diplomatic action Support for free and alternative internet access Who Can Take Part? Iranians living outside Iran Dual nationals Human rights supporters worldwide You do not need to be a political activist.You only need to be a concerned resident willing to […]
Old Persian Cuneiform
Persépolis Inscription - Old Persian Cuneiform
Old Persian (the language of the Achaemenid Empire) was written in a distinct cuneiform script known today as Old Persian cuneiform. This script is strongly associated with the Achaemenid royal inscriptions, and it appears most famously on monuments and tablets from sites such as Persepolis (Takht-e Jamshid), along with other imperial locations. It is commonly stated that Darius the Great ordered a writing system to be prepared for Old Persian so that the language could be recorded in an official and consistent form. In historical discussions, Old Persian cuneiform is often described as being influenced by earlier cuneiform traditions in Mesopotamia, where Sumerian and Akkadian writing systems had already existed for centuries. Main features of the script Old Persian cuneiform has a relatively small and organised set of signs compared with older Mesopotamian cuneiform systems. It is typically described as including: 36 phonetic signs word-divider signs (used to separate words) […]
