The Peace Corps Pledge was composed in 2015 long after Peace Corps had left Iran. Nevertheless, the words and spirit resonate with Iran RPCVs.
I, [name], promise to serve alongside the people of Iran.
I promise to share my culture with an open heart and open mind.
I promise to foster an understanding of the people of Iran, with creativity, cultural sensitivity, and respect.
I will face the challenges of service with patience, humility, and determination.
I will embrace the mission of world peace and friendship for as long as I serve and beyond.
In the proud tradition of Peace Corps’ legacy, and in the spirit of the Peace Corps family past, present, and future—
I am a Peace Corps Volunteer.”
