Advocacy and Awareness
In the fight for human rights, and against Islamism and Antisemitism, Yasmine has always been front and center. Throughout her advocacy, Yasmine has tirelessly stood against the threat of fundamentalist Islam and the rise of antisemitism. She has organized conferences around the world and joined talks with other organizations to help raise awareness. Yasmine has testified in the House of Commons in Canada and co-authored groundbreaking testimonies to the Prime Minister, the Ministry of Education and MPs pushing back against antisemitism in our nation. She has fiercely championed for women and LGBT rights in Islamic countries and communities as well as in the West. She joined United Against Gender Apartheid Campaign to lend her voice to Iranian and Afghan women who are fighting to criminalize gender apartheid around the world. Yasmine has been an integral part of the fight for freedom of all women and has always amplified the voice of the voiceless.
Yasmine is the co-founder and co-director of CLARITYy Coalition, a global alliance of Muslims, ex-Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Christians, people of all faiths and no faiths, academics, scholars, authors, and activists who stand for peace, democracy, liberty, and secular governance and who are deeply concerned by the continuing threat posed to these values by the actions and demands of Islamists in various places around the world.

United Against Gender Apartheid Campaign
In her fight for women's rights all around the world, Yasmine joined United Against Gender Apartheid Campaign, to help women from Iran and Afghanistan criminalize gender apartheid as a crime against women. As Yasmine mentions in her book Unveiled multiple times, women in Islamic countries and communities are living in an open-air prison, gender apartheid regimes that deprive women of basic human rights and dignities. And until and unless they are freed, nobody is actually free.
