Representing the Dean of the college, the scientific deputy, Assistant Professor Dr. Haitham Ali Badi, stated in his speech, “We recall on this anniversary of Women’s Day the significant stances of this great figure who has shaped life throughout history and laid the foundation of Iraqi civilization. Our forefathers immortalized her in their epics and stories and adorned the walls of their kingdoms with her imagery, granting her the highest status in their achievements. Their legacies are a testament to the understanding of the importance of this generous edifice. The statues of (Shibad) and (the Sumerian Woman) are signals that have reached us, illuminating our future with the beauty of the past, in which the Iraqi woman played prominent roles in managing the highest state functions with wisdom and firmness, founding a civil state that has remained a beacon of light for the world.”
