Report by Mitra Shujai

On Saturday, September 26 (October 4), the comprehensive network of Women, Life, Liberation (IranAlternative) held a conference in Cologne, Germany. Representatives of the Kurdish, Baloch, Turkish and Arab parties, as well as representatives of the Communist Labor Party, as well as representatives of human rights organizations participated in this conference.

In response to DW's question as to why representatives of various political parties located in Cologne are not present at the conference, Shirin Shams, spokesperson for the comprehensive network of Women, Life, Liberation, clarified that various parties such as the Left Party of Iran and the Democratic Party of Iran and several other groups and the Republican Party were invited, but each of them did not come for some reason. He says: "Being inclusive means that each of these political forces can represent a part of Iran's society or different movements, and this is the need of today's revolution of women, life, liberation, that these forces gather together and their power causes synergy."
