حمایت دانشگاهیان از منشور اتحادیه‌های کارگری و تشکل‌های مدنی مستقل ایران

ده‌ها تن از چهره‌های شناخته‌شده دانشگاهی ایرانی و ایرانشناس با امضاء بیانیه‌ی مشترکی از «منشور‌ مطالبات حداقلی تشکل‌های مستقل صنفی و‌ مدنی ایران» حمایت کردند.

امضاءکنندگان این بیانیه می‌گویند: «مبارزه برای آزادی همه زندانیان سیاسی، لغو مجازات اعدام، جدایی دین از دولت، تامین برابری جنسیتی، لغو تبعیض و ستم ملی و مذهبی، برقراری دموکراسی رادیکال، عادی سازی روابط با کشورهای دیگر، تامین عدالت اجتماعی و حفاظت از محیط زیست کشور» را مبنایی دانسته‌اند که «می‌تواند تغییرات بنیادی لازم را برای کشور به ارمغان آورد».

متن این بیانیه و اسامی ۷۱ امضاکننده را در پی می خوانید:

برای زن، زندگی، آزادی
در حمایت از منشور اتحادیه‌های کارگری و تشکل‌های مدنی مستقل ایران
که در جستجوی تغییرات اجتماعی از درون و پایین جامعه ایرانند!

تدوین منشور«مطالبات حداقلی» توسط ۲۰ اتحادیه مستقل نیروی‌کار و انجمن‌های‌ مدنیِ ایران، که دیری است در خط مقدم کارزارها و مبارزاتِ پیشرو کشور قرارداشته‌اند اتفاق مبارکی است!

این منشور که با الهام از جنبش «زن، زندگی، آزادی» تدوین شده، جنبشی که در ماههای گذشته در خیابان‌ها، مراکزِ کار، مدارس و دانشگاه‌های ایران جاری بوده، مبانی لازم را برای ساماندهی مبارزه‌ای گسترده‌تر برای ساختن ایرانی آزاد و عدالت‌محور برای همه ایرانیان بدست می‌دهد.

این منشور ایرانیان را به همراهی در مبارزه برای آزادی همه زندانیان سیاسی، لغو مجازات اعدام، جدایی دین از دولت، تامین برابری جنسیتی،  لغو تبعیض و ستم ملی و مذهبی، برقراری دموکراسی رادیکال، عادی سازی روابط با کشورهای دیگر، تامین عدالت اجتماعی و حفاظت از محیط زیست کشور فرامی‌خواند.  ما از منشور «مطالبات حداقلی» اتحادیه‌ها و انجمن‌های مدنی ایران استقبال می‌کنیم زیرا عمیقاً باور داریم که تنها کارزارها و مبارزات سامان یافته توسط سازمان‌های مردمی درایران می‌تواند تغییرات بنیادی لازم را برای کشور به ارمغان آورد.

For Women, Life, Freedom
For Change from Below and Within Iran

Statement in Support of the Charter of
Iran’s Independent Labor and Civic Organizations

We welcome the charter issued by 20 independent labor and other civil society organizations that have been at the forefront of progressive campaigns and struggles in Iran. Emanating from the Women, Life, Freedom protests in the streets, workplaces, schools and universities, this charter proposes a set of minimum demands around which a widespread and ongoing struggle for a shared, democratic and just future for all Iranians can be organized. The main demands of this charter include the release of all political prisoners, the abolition of the death penalty, the separation of religion from the state, gender equality, abolishing discrimination and oppression based on nationality and religion, radical democracy, the normalization of relations with the world, and social and environmental justice. We welcome this charter, because we strongly believe that fundamental change can only come from grassroots organizations, campaigns and struggles from within Iran.
