Mojahedin of the Islamic Revolution Organization (Persian: سازمان مجاهدین انقلاب اسلامی), sometimes abbreviated to MIRO, is a reformist Iranian political organization. It is a small yet influential organization, and participates in political activities similar to a political party. It has been called "a circle of intellectuals and technocrats radical in economic policies but relatively liberal in cultural matters." [1]

MIRO was found in 1991 and it is headed by Secretary General Mohammad Salamati. Other key figures include Behzad Nabavi, Mohsen Armin, Mostafa Tajzadeh, Hashem Aghajari and Feyzollah Arabsorkhi.
