Woman, Life, Freedom: Narges Mohammadi, Imprisoned Iranian Activist, Awarded 2023 Nobel Peace Prize

Iranian human rights activist Narges Mohammadi has been awarded this year’s Nobel Peace Prize for her work fighting against women’s oppression in Iran. Mohammadi will not be able to personally receive the prize because she is currently incarcerated in Iran for her protest activities. To share more about Mohammadi, the “Women, Life, Freedom“ movement and the potential impact of the Nobel on Mohammadi’s imprisonment, we speak with Negar Mortazavi, an Iranian American journalist, host of _The Iran Podcast_ and senior fellow at the Center for International Policy.
