On 24/2/2024, the Zakat Al-Ilm Foundation, in collaboration with the Department of Law and the University Administration, organized a scientific seminar during which Mr. Hashmand Osman Rasul, Assistant Director of the Social Security Department in Sulaymaniyah, presented a topic. The aim of the seminar was to provide a comprehensive analysis of the “Summary of Pension Law” and social security. The purpose of this seminar was to present a legal perspective on the laws and regulations related to pension laws and social security systems.

By providing these legal frameworks, the presenter sought to equip law students, as well as the academic and administrative staff, with a deeper understanding of their entitlements to retirement and social security. The seminar was a valuable opportunity for law students to bridge the gap between legal theory and practical application, enabling students to gain a practical perspective on the application of legal principles.

The partnership between the Zakat of Knowledge Foundation, the Law Department, and the University Administration underscores the university’s commitment to providing comprehensive education and empowering the community with leading knowledge in the fields of law and social security. The purpose of these activities is to enrich the academic experience and professional development of students and administrative staff.
