This paper explores the influence of social media on the advancement of women's rights, focusing on changes in communication, activism and the way we inform ourselves. The fight for women's rights represents a very long and complex journey towards equality for women in all aspects of their lives, starting from within the family life to the more public matters of political and social rights such as access to education, the right to vote, and economic independence. With the development of social media and the strengthening of its role in modern society, it seems that the fight for women's rights has gained a stronger presence in both the media and people's minds. We are witnessing the social unrest in Iran that is closely related to yearning for greater women's rights in that country, where social media plays a key role in spreading information, expressing dissatisfaction and encouraging the society to react. The aim of the survey is to gain insight into the respondents' attitudes and experiences related to social media, gender equality and the state of women's rights in Iran. The goal is to check the habits of respondents as social media users, to see how respondents perceive the state of women's rights in Iran and their views on the efficacy of social media in advancing this cause. The survey showed that 63.6 % of respondents believe that the connection between social media and the fight for women's rights is positive, and the majority of respondents (55.1 %) believe that the role of social media in spreading awareness of the problem of inequality is important. It can also be concluded that despite the fact that social media enables global connection and communication, it can only do so much, and in order for real change to happen it is necessary to act outside the virtual world.
