Babagurgur University participated in the activities of the seventh tree-planting campaign organized by the KOKAR Foundation for Sustainable Development, which lasted five hours with the aim of supporting the environment and increasing green spaces in the city.
This participation comes to renew the university’s commitment to supporting environmental initiatives and actively contributing to serving the community and building a more sustainable future.
The program about women’s leadership in government institutions and high blood pressure discusses women’s leadership and how to deal with it among women. Sometimes women are ignored or overlooked.
Some women are called leaders. Some women hold positions in the political arena.
I carried the instruction about cleanliness from my students with me. I told them that they should not throw away paper while eating from their stamps. They should avoid touching the bullet trees because the trees provide us with oxygen, and we have beautiful nature.
As part of the significant project initiated by the World Foundation (Zakat Science), I have engaged in various activities aimed at benefiting the community. These activities include delivering educational seminars for students at all levels and promoting a beneficial campaign for Hope Hospital and cancer patients. I have also provided model lessons to community teachers to share my expertise. Additionally, I have established online connections with Kurdish schools abroad to learn about the culture of Kurdish education and to collaborate and exchange experiences. This is in addition to many other charitable endeavors and providing free teaching to public and low-income students.
