A consultative meeting was held with Chairman Akram Al-Assaf and the group’s women leaders and community members on December 26, 2017 to discuss women’s taking leading roles in society and their participation in decision-making and access to political leadership opportunities and resources.

Women’s inclusion in stabilization and reconstruction operations in Iraq is an integral part of the overall strategy to rebuild the country and this is can only be achieved by putting a proper road map to ensure the implementation of these strategies.

Women are not one half of society, women are the entire society and their inclusion in our future national strategies is vital to rebuilding our society and our country.
