On Monday 11 November 2024, Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe delivered the annual Longford Lecture at Church House in Westminster.
Nazanin was imprisoned in 2016 at the end of a family visit to Iran, accused of plotting to overthrow the government by running courses in journalism that the Iranian regime said aimed to train people to spread propaganda against Iran.
She vehemently denied these charges but remained in prison until 2022.
In this year's emotional Longford Lecture, she tells us what she learnt from the experience and explains her passion for penal reform.
