Hi Ronda,

Thanks for sharing the avaaz link.

The direct link to the Academics in Support of... is: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1z6ll5q8InnCcqp_9JDeYBodVMqMDaRV7vDYQqa8cyaM/viewform?embedded=true

Hopefully that one will work.

Hi Carla,

Your link to the petition didn't work for me, but this one should:

Hi Everyone,

You may know a Canadian professor from Concordia, Homa Hoodfar, has been recently arrested and imprisoned in Iran. There is currently a petition calling upon the government of Iran to release her and allow her safe return to Canada. Information about Professor Hoodfar and the petition is available at http://www.homahoodfar.org/

The Toronto Star's Sunday editorial provides some additional context and a call to have Ottawa press Iran for her release: https://www.thestar.com/opinion/editorials/2016/06/12/ottawa-must-press-iran-to-release-canadian-professor-editorial.html

Best,

Carla
