Iran government administrative and social reforms

Overview

The Iranian government has initiated several administrative and social reforms aimed at optimizing resource management and workforce participation.

In early October, the Ministry of Interior announced efforts to increase women’s involvement in decision-making processes. Parvin Dadandish, head of the Center for Women and Family Affairs, noted that the ministry intends to utilize the expertise of female advisors—currently numbering approximately 670 across various agencies—to address national issues, including energy consumption management.

By late October, the First Vice President issued a directive to reform commuting patterns for government employees to reduce personal vehicle use. The policy mandates that executive agencies implement plans to ensure at least 70 percent of staff utilize public transit, cycling, walking, or carpooling within three years. To support this transition, agencies are instructed to replace gasoline-powered official vehicles with electric or hybrid models and designate one day per week as a “car-free day.”
