June 18, 2023 will mark 40 years since 10 Baha’i women were hanged in Shiraz. Their only ‘crime’ was their refusal to renounce their beliefs in a faith that promotes the principles of gender equality, unity, justice, and truthfulness. This collection highlights Baha’i Blog content relating to the ongoing persecution of Baha’is in Iran.
This short video, produced by the Australian Baha’i Community, shares how the Baha’i community of Australia is dedicated to promoting the material and spiritual advancement of Australian society. Since its establishment in Australia in 1920, the Baha’i community has been a participant in interfaith dialogue, social action efforts and community building initiatives from the grassroots through to the national level. The Australian Baha’i community has been conscious to collaborate with, and learn alongside, others in order to contribute to the development of thought in various areas of common concern for Australian society, such as social cohesion.
