NUS Women's Campaign and No Sweat are organising a speaker tour around International Women's Day to promote solidarity with the new women's movement in Iraq. The main speaker will be Houzan Mahmoud, UK representative of the Organisation of Women's Freedom in Iraq.

The new independent women's movement in Iraq is fighting for its life against both the occupation-backed government and the Islamist "resistance" militias. That's why NUS Women's Campaign and No Sweat are organising a speaker tour around International Women's Day to promote solidarity with women in Iraq. The main speaker will be Houzan Mahmoud, UK representative of the Organisation of Women's Freedom in Iraq (www.equalityiniraq.com)
