17 Dey 2590 Shahanshahi — equivalent to 17 Dey 1410 Shamsi and 2032-01-07 Gregorian. Women's Emancipation Day is observed on this day. Today's occasion, a cultural insight, and a classical Persian verse.
17 Dey 2590 in the Shahanshahi calendar falls on Wednesday — equivalent to 17 Dey 1410 Shamsi and 7 January 2032 Gregorian.
On 8 January 1936, Reza Shah the Great took the historic step of women's emancipation — a path that led to suffrage, university education, and women in public life during the Pahlavi era. The Woman, Life, Freedom movement continues that path.
Today is 17 Dey in the Shahanshahi calendar — one day in thousands of years of unbroken Persian culture.
شب تاریک و بیم موج و گردابی چنین هایل کجا دانند حال ما سبکباران ساحلها
“Dark night, fear of waves, such a terrible whirlpool How can those on shore know our state”
— Hafez
