Ahmadreza Haeri

HRD

Ahmadreza Haeri is a human rights defender and anti-death penalty campaigner. He has been advocating for prisoners’ rights, including their right to life, through his involvement in the “Tuesdays No-to-Execution” campaign. This campaign was started by a group of prisoners to raise awareness about the executions in Iran and to bring to light the situation of prisoners on death row. The campaign has since grown momentum in Iran, outside of it’s prisons. The human rights defender has been targeted for his role in the campaign, including facing charges of “propaganda against state.”
