Answer:

dress code for women

Step-by-step explanation:

to protest the government's strict dress code regime it enforces on women. They were first sparked by the death of Mahsa Amini in mid-September after she was arrested for allegedly breaking these rules. The symbolic issue for Iran’s protest movement is a requirement, imposed by morality police, that women and girls wear the hijab, or headscarf. In reality, these protests are the result of a much wider revolt against discrimination and prejudice.
