Mosul, Iraq, September 1st, 2026. Under the sponsorship of Al-Hadba University, the first edition of the Nineveh Health Forum opened at Al-Muthanna Park in Mosul, with broad and active participation from health, academic and community institutions. Over three days, the forum served as a platform for health awareness and education, and strengthened partnerships among the bodies working in the health sector to serve the people of Nineveh Governorate.
🏥 A Platform for Health Awareness and Partnership
The forum brought together health institutions, universities, government bodies, volunteers and members of the public in one open space. Its aim was to raise community health awareness, bring medical services closer to citizens, and build lasting cooperation among the institutions responsible for health in the governorate.
🗣️ Dialogues, Free Consultations and Treatment
The forum featured discussions and contributions from professors, physicians, academics, government officials and students. Visitors received free medical consultations and treatment, as well as gifts provided by Al-Hadba University and other volunteers. A range of activities also aimed to strengthen a culture of community health and social responsibility.
