Harkat Ensani

Harkat Ensani is an Iranian foundation dedicated to tackling inequality and extreme poverty that was launched in 2017 with a vision of achieving financial independence by 2030. At the heart of its mission is the belief that wealth redistribution through taxation is one of the most effective solutions to reduce inequality and create a fairer society.

Inspired by the strategy practiced at Human Act, Harkat Ensani has developed a strong advocacy platform, raising public awareness about wealth disparities in Iran and actively campaigning for the introduction of a 1% wealth tax.

The foundation’s efforts extend beyond advocacy into on-the-ground impact projects, with a focus on education as a powerful engine for greater equality. Financial support is directed toward underprivileged children, especially talented and vulnerable students from low-income families, ensuring they have access to quality education.

In addition to funding scholarships and educational initiatives, Harkat Ensani engages volunteers who contribute their time and expertise to support students and strengthen the foundation’s impact.

To raise awareness, Harkat Ensani partners with local and international organizations to host events, run campaigns, and engage in advocacy. It also works closely with the press to amplify conversations about inequality and mobilize public support for systemic change.

By combining awareness-building with direct financial support for education, the foundation is building momentum toward a more equal Iran, one where resources are shared more fairly and every child has the opportunity to thrive.
