Participation of the Business Administration Department Students in a Tree-Planting Campaign in Erbil

On Thursday, March 27, 2025, the Department of Business Administration at Cihan University-Erbil organized a tree-planting campaign at Al-Mutafawwiqat Secondary School for Girls in Erbil.

The campaign involved the participation of a group of first-year students from the department mentioned earlier under the supervision of Assistant Professor Dr. Qusay Al-Salami and Assistant Lecturer Hevi Mohammed Qader.

Upon arrival, the students, along with their supervisors, were warmly received by Ms. Huda Hamed Mohammed, the school principal. They prepared the soil, then planted and watered the trees, actively contributing to this environmental initiative. Such an initiative was beneficial for the students, as they had a hands-on opportunity to engage in eco-friendly practices while promoting sustainability.

It is important to note that the Business Administration Department at Cihan University-Erbil has consistently led efforts to clean and improve the environment in the Kurdistan region, including solving critical issues such as Conserve Water, Preserve the Planet, Every Drop Counts, Don’t Waste Food, Reduce Your Usage, and Brighten the Future.
