(October 2005) The Persian edition of Leading to Choices: A Multimedia Curriculum for Leadership Learning is the first culture-specific adaptation of WLP's innovative multimedia training package. The Persian edition is tailored for human rights and democracy activists, educators, women leaders, and facilitators working with Persian speaking communities in Afghanistan, Central Asia, Iran, and the Persian diaspora. The curriculum is based on a concept of participatory leadership that enables women and men to develop skills to prevent conflict, share power, and build coalitions to promote human rights, social justice, and peace. The package provides interactive, scenario-based activities and illustrative examples of how to create participatory and democratic learning environments, how to implement successful advocacy campaigns, and how to develop compelling messages for target audiences. Women's Learning Partnership collaboratively developed the prototype curriculum and materials with women's rights activists and our partner organizations in Afghanistan, Cameroon, Jordan, Lebanon, Malaysia, Morocco, Nigeria, Pakistan, Palestine, and Uzbekistan and created the Persian adaptation in consultation with Iranian activists and scholars.
