On Monday, January 12, 2026, students from the Department of Business Administration at Cihan University–Erbil conducted an awareness campaign to inform the community about the dangers of using narcotic substances, emphasizing the importance of raising awareness about drug abuse and promoting ways to protect individuals from its harmful effects.

The academic staff of the department, together with the students, first prepared printed brochures titled “The Risks of Using Narcotic Substances and Methods of Self-Protection.” The brochures included important information about the harmful effects of drug use and ways to prevent it. Drug use causes serious damage to the brain, heart, and nervous system, increases rates of crime and violence, and leads to the breakdown of family relationships. The brochures also outlined several methods of self-protection, such as learning about the dangers of drugs, staying away from drug sources, and firmly refusing drugs when they are offered.

As part of this activity, a group of students visited Sami Abdulrahman Park in Erbil under the supervision of Assistant Lecturer Hevi Mohammed Qadir. They distributed awareness brochures to citizens and visitors and encouraged them to act more responsibly and consciously in order to help build a healthy and informed society.
