Data 

The project of collecting data on the serial poison attacks on Iran's girls' schools is a side a project by Radio Dastneveshteha Podcast. 

The source of the cases recorded on this website are from Iran's local news agencies and newspapers. Although individual reports on social media are being used to support and complete the information, the condition for an incident to be recorded on this website must be a confirmed source.  

Update: In April 9th, 2023 a leaked directive to news and media outlets in Iran indicated that any report on suspected school poisoning in Iran was strictly banned. Subsequently it was impossible to collect any additional data from previous sources of this project. Therefore a new framework was defined to identify "confirmed suspected school poisoning reports". Based on the new framework, a report must be published by at least two of the following three sources: BBC Persian, Radio Farda and Harana to considered confirmed. 

Update: Starting April 16th, 2023 Harana stopped covering schools' poisonings in Iran and therefore Telegram channel of The Coordinating Council of Iranian Teachers’ Trade Associations was used as one of the sources.
