The recent woman-led and -inspired demonstrations in Iran following the death of Mahsa Amini at the hands of the country’s Morality Police have garnered widespread support both in Iran and around the globe. These protests have persisted and even widened despite the lethal response by the Islamic Republic’s security forces and the plain-clothed Basij forces. In response, on 22 September the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) designated Iran’s “Morality Police for abuse and violence against Iranian women and the violation of the rights of peaceful Iranian protestors.” Our panel of experts will discuss these developments and the implications of targeted human rights sanctions on the movement in Iran, and whether and how these types of targeted financial sanctions could bring about change.
