The initiative involved planting a large number of diverse saplings across the Center\u2019s outdoor spaces and gardens, with active participation from all faculty members and staff.<br \/>\nThis campaign serves as a practical step toward expanding green spaces within the university campus. Such efforts contribute to purifying the air and fostering a healthy educational environment, while also raising environmental awareness among students and encouraging them to adopt sustainable practices to protect the environment.<br \/>\nThe Agricultural Committee, which oversaw the implementation of the campaign, carefully selected tree, plant, and flower species well-suited to the climate and environmental conditions of Iraq and the Baghdad Governorate. The objective is to mitigate pollution, promote a culture of sustainability, and enhance the university environment.<br \/>\nThis activity supports several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), namely: Goal 4 (Quality Education), Goal 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), Goal 15 (Life on Land), and Goal 17 (Partnerships for the Goals).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In alignment with the national afforestation initiative launched by the Prime Minister\u2019s Office, in accordance with the directives of
