The College of Education for Girls, in cooperation with the Rehabilitation and Follow-up Center at the University of Basra, organized an awareness seminar to combat violence against women entitled Investing in Communities to Stop Violence against Women: The Role of Community Participation and Funding.

The first topic presented by Dr. Enas Al-Nasser dealt with the definition: What is violence? What are its types? Knowing the problems rooted in society and causing it.

The second topic, presented by Dr. Rafif Al-Riahi, addressed female students’ awareness of combating violence against women, and their role in dealing with cases of violence through the method of understanding, or reporting cases of violence.

The symposium concluded with the need to educate female students and graduates about their social and cultural needs in order to advance their situation, support them, develop them, motivate them, and enhance their societal role because they are a basic building block for building an intellectually and economically developed society.
