Abstract :
In 1945, when World War II ended and the United Nations was established , respect for human rights, declaration of renewed belief in man’s basic rights and the value of this sublime character, and egalitarianism between men and women were introduced as the highest ideals of the United Nations. Accordingly, member governments were required to collaborate in realizing these goals ; in order to increase the nations’ concern and attention , March 8th was named and observed as the United Nations Day for women’s rights and international peace. Also, November 25th was named the international day of eliminating violence against women, on Which women’s highly human status is celebrated each year through special ceremonies. Whenever we turn the pages of the world history during the previous millennia, we come across heart-breaking scenes of tyrannical and unequal behavior toward women all over the world, which indicates the negligence of human societies throughout history. However, with the establishment of the United Nations Organization as well as the efforts of the world peace – lovers, a new movement started in line with the renewed respect for women’s rights in various respects.
