On November 19, 2025, the professors and students of the English Department at Cihan University in Sulaymaniyah participated in a breakfast for 1,000 people in the city square, organized by Dr. Aras Abdul Karim, Head of the English Department, and Ms. Shaimaa Mohammed, a lecturer in the English Department, along with a number of department students.

As part of the event, students from all levels collected a variety of food and essentials and donated them to the homeless.

The event was held under the supervision of Assistant Professor Tawfiq and teacher Saya, with the oversight of the Head of the Business Administration Department. After receiving the donations, the officials of the orphanage expressed their gratitude and thanks to the Business Administration Department and the University of Sulaymaniyah for their continued assistance and visits.

Several important topics were presented at the workshop, including the concept of foster families, which was introduced by the session director Hiro Abu Bakr, in addition to the principles and guidelines for caring for children by foster families, presented by lawyer Himin Mohamed, followed by issues and challenges in childcare presented by our graduates,

lawyer and master’s student Xiao Mahmoud. The workshop became an important forum for discussing the legal and social aspects of childcare by foster families, highlighting the gaps between the text of the law and its implementation. Participants emphasized the importance of protecting children’s rights and providing a safe environment for them to grow and thrive.

In the workshop, the focus was on the topic of ‘corrective education’ and encouraging teachers to change their teaching approach from a social punishment model to a model of reform through community involvement. Dr. explained, using the analogy of the ‘connected branch,’ that 80% of successful classroom management relies on early initiative and relationship building, not just on dealing with mistakes. Participants learned through behavior guidance how to work ‘with’ students rather than merely supervising them at school. These activities are part of the university’s efforts to renew the teaching and learning process in the region.

Among the participating students, Jalal Amin and Shad Dler Mohammed succeeded at the national level among Iraqi universities and qualified for the regional level in the Middle East, which is an important achievement for both the students and the university.

This accomplishment reflects the Department of Computer Science’s commitment to academic excellence and the development of students’ skills. Jihan University-Sulaymaniyah congratulates the students and supervisors and wishes them continued success in the upcoming stages.
