On Tuesday, June 16, the Pacific Council invites our members to join an intimate gathering with Minky Worden, Director of Global Initiatives at Human Rights Watch, and Maryam Shojaei, Iranian-Canadian activist and author of Azadi Means Freedom: Fighting for Gender Equity Through the World's Most Popular Game. The conversation will examine the intersection of sport, human rights, and gender equity as the 2026 FIFA World Cup approaches, drawing on Shojaei's firsthand experience challenging Iran's decades-long stadium ban on women.
