Project description

Changemakers Women is part of Authentic Persia’s larger initiative. First and foremost, I must define “Authentic Persia.” Authentic Persia is a free consulting platform for visitors to Iran. It also provides tourism services such as experience-based trips and responsible travel. Here is the website address:

So, back in Iran, my team and I were attempting to give some experience-based tours to travelers in order for them to better understand the culture and meet some women who were working in the tourism industry or pioneers in other fields related to culture and art. As a result, we decided to add a new section called “Changemakers Women” and collaborate with Mexico City’s Museo Nacional de las Culturas del Mundo (INAH) to introduce and debate the achievements of Iranian and Mexican changemakers women.

Introduction:

Authentic Persia is proposing an initiative to highlight the achievements of Iranian and Mexican women in various fields and promote gender equality and empowerment. This initiative aims to challenge negative perceptions and stereotypes about women while showcasing the positive contributions of both Iranian and Mexican women to their society and culture. The initiative will also promote both countries as a destination for cultural and social tourism.

Purpose:

The purpose of this project is to challenge negative perceptions and stereotypes about Iranian women while showcasing the positive contributions of both Iranian and Mexican women to their society and culture. Our objective is to promote both Iran and Mexico as a destination for cultural and social tourism by highlighting the achievements of their women in various fields and the positive impact they have had on society and culture.
