Objective: The research aimed at providing mechanisms to promote Iranian women's participation in political as well as economic aspects. Method: Documentation and Survey methods were conducted for data gathering and the analysis of the research findings. Respondents were interviewed, according to a pre-tested questionnaire. Findings: It was confirmed that the more educated the respondents, the less likely to participate in political affairs. This is due to their awareness of the shortcoming or defects of the existing legislation regarding women issues. Results: Higher levels of academic education do not necessarily lead women to be actively involved-in politics until and unless meaningful, positive changes occur in the overall legislative system in Iran.
