The College of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Basrah organized a student awareness festival under the slogan “No to Violence – Respect Is the Beginning of Peace.”
The festival aimed to combat violence against women, enhance community awareness of the dangers of violence in all its forms, and support women’s rights to protection and justice.
As part of its activities, the festival included a lecture on domestic violence in light of recent societal changes and its impacts on the community, in addition to the participation of students and faculty members in creating artworks and posters depicting violence against women.
During the festival, the College of Law presented a donation of awareness-raising books addressing violence against women, along with cultural publications that were added to the library to educate readers about violence and its consequences for individuals and families in particular, and for society at large.
