Statement on the Events in Iran – Current Students – Current Students

Read Time:39 Second

The news of violent acts in Iran – including on Iranian university campuses – is upsetting and distressing, especially for those in the Carleton community who have close ties with the country. We fully support Canada’s foreign affairs minister in condemning the death of Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old woman in Iranian police custody, as well as the state’s subsequent violent measures against civilian plus student protests. We stand in solidarity with Iranian students, faculty, staff, alumni and citizens.

Carleton University is strongly opposed to all acts of violence and committed to the rights and freedom of women – and all human rights – around the world.

Those in need are encouraged to reach out for support:

Students

Faculty and Staff
