Who We Are

Structured Dialogue.
Collective Advocacy.

The National Iran Network is a secure, purpose-built platform supporting the Iranian diaspora in organised discussion, human rights advocacy, and democratic engagement.

Operated under Amnesty International Australia
Our Mission

A Platform Built for
Meaningful Change

We exist to bridge the gap between dispersed voices in the Iranian diaspora and the levers of international advocacy. Social media is noisy and ephemeral. Forums here are structured, searchable, and linked to real outcomes — petitions, statements, and published meeting summaries that carry weight.

Every discussion on this platform is moderated for quality, respects the anonymity of participants where required, and is archived so that momentum is never lost between sessions.

Security & Anonymity

Participants may use verified aliases to protect their safety while still contributing meaningfully to discussions.

Bilingual by Design

All core platform content is available in English and Farsi, ensuring no voice is excluded by language barriers.

Community-Led

Discussion threads, roundtables, and live meetings are moderated by trained community members, not opaque algorithms.

Outcomes-Oriented

Every roundtable produces a published summary. Every vote generates a record. Discussion always connects to action.

What We Offer

Beyond Social Media

We provide infrastructure that social platforms cannot — structured, archived, and accountable dialogue.

Structured Forums

Threaded, moderated discussion boards organised by topic — from domestic policy to international advocacy campaigns.

Live Meetings & Roundtables

Scheduled virtual sessions with facilitated agendas, live Q&A, polls, and published minutes after each meeting.

News & Published Statements

A curated news section separating editorial content from community discussion, with clear sourcing and dates.

Archived & Searchable

Every thread, vote, and statement is permanently archived and fully searchable — institutional memory that outlasts any single member.

Our Organisation

Backed by Amnesty
International Australia

The National Iran Network operates as an initiative under Amnesty International Australia, which provides governance oversight, data protection standards, and organisational accountability. This affiliation means the platform adheres to rigorous human rights principles in how it is run, moderated, and how participant data is handled.

Amnesty International is a global movement of more than ten million people campaigning for human rights. Their Australian chapter provides the legal and institutional framework within which the National Iran Network was founded and continues to operate.
