Congress of Nationalities for a Federal Iran

The Congress of Nationalities for a Federal Iran is a political alliance of political parties and advocacy groups, mostly underground or exiled, which campaigns for the replacement of the current Islamist government system in Iran with a secular, democratic, federal government. It has also called for antipersonnel landmines to be banned in Iran. Many of the member groups are concurrent advocates for the rights or self-determination of non-Persian Iranians, including Azeris, Kurds, Arabs, Turkmen, and Baloch.

The organization grew out of a conference held in London on 20 February 2005.

The Congress of Nationalities for a Federal Iran, CNFI, held a conference in Frankfurt, Germany in 2016. The purpose of the conference was to provide a platform for democratic dialogue, as well as to promote consensus on strategic issues related to the future of Iran.
