Today, @UN_HRC announced the names of three human rights champions as members of Iran’s fact-finding mission to investigate the human rights violations since mid-September in Iran. A significant development on the path to accountability. /1

The appointment of three women reflects the mission’s focus which is the Iranian women and children. Although areas of violations will be covered, this will send a message to Iranian women that they have been heard. /2 #MahsaAmini #مهسا_امینی #IranRevoIution #WomanLifeFreedom

Sara Hossain, Viviana Krsticevic, & Shaheed Sardar Ali have not worked on Iran. So they can’t be accused of bias against the IRI. 2 of them are Muslim, so the regime can’t say they don’t understand our culture. And none of them is American or European. /3 #MahsaAmini #مهسا_امینی

Sarah Hossain is respected in human rights circles. She has stood up to anti-women laws in Bangladesh. So the issues that Iranian women are facing are familiar to her. She is an Oxford graduate & former member of the Supreme Court in Bangladesh in 199. /4 #MahsaAmini #مهسا_امینی

.@ViviKrsticevic has been doing documentation, litigation, and advocacy on the NGO side for 30 years, all in the Americas. She has been a champion of women's inclusion in the UN through the GQUAL campaign. She is called a “powerhouse.” #MahsaAmini #مهسا_امینی #IranRevoIution

.@ReedBrody, a prominent international lawyer, who has been instrumental in bringing rights violators & dictators to justice over the past decades from Chad to Chile, says “@ViviKrsticevic is smart, strategic, committed, and tireless.” /6 #MahsaAmini #مهسا_امینی #IranRevoIution

“Vivi has for 3 decades been a champion of oppressed ppl, marginalized communities & human rights defenders in the Americas as well as for gender parity at the intl level.She's always pushing the system to make it work for everyone,” says @ReedBrody. /7 #MahsaAmini #مهسا_امینی
