Abstract

Understanding the condition of women during the Qajar period requires examining the publications of that era, where women were considered a cornerstone of both family and society. The newspaper Shokoufeh, with its comprehensive perspective on health issues for families and schools, and its repeated emphasis on the necessity of women's education, holds significant importance for understanding the role and status of women and the general conditions of the time.
This study addresses the question of why Shokoufeh emphasized the necessity of educating and raising awareness among women regarding education and health? It also examines the strategies proposed by the newspaper to encourage women to pursue education and adhere to health principles?. The findings indicate that Shokoufeh represented an intellectual movement aiming to replace traditional views on women's education. By introducing Western women's lifestyles and emphasizing the value of women as individuals, the newspaper sought to open new horizons for Iranian women in the fields of education and health.
Using a library-based methodology and a descriptive-analytical approach, this research explores Shokoufeh's perspective on the significance of school health as a prerequisite for education and national development. The newspaper emphasized the need for a healthy school environment for girls pursuing education and highlighted the importance of women’s role in both the household and society.
