AIBs 2022 presenter Rana Rahimpour – BBC News Persian
Rana Rahimpour is an Iranian-British journalist who has lived in exile in Britain since 2008. She joined BBC News Persian as a reporter and has covered stories from Iran in both English and Persian. From the violent suppression of Iran’s Green movement in 2009 by the authorities to Iran’s nuclear talks and from the devastating effect of Covid to the recent nationwide unrest across the country, Rahimpour has been one of the main faces covering Iran for the BBC. She is currently one of BBC Persian’s lead presenters, and anchors 60 Minutes, one of the most viewed Persian current affairs programmes in the world. She has also campaigned against the persecution of her colleagues by the Iranian authorities and addressed the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva to call for an end to the harassment.
