The first round of the National Girls’ Festival will be held this year in Tehran in autumn. “The event is a joint effort between the ministries of education, science, sports and youths affairs, and the Iranian Red Crescent Society,” Vice President Shahindokht Molaverdi told ISNA on Tuesday. The festival aims to direct attention to the issues and problems of girls in the society, and discuss possible solutions. Two specialized panel discussions are also planned on the periphery.
