Erbil:The Department of Business Administration at Cihan University–Erbil organized a community initiative to support Erbil High School for Outstanding Students. The initiative aimed to promote social solidarity and respond to the rainy weather conditions that had recently affected many areas of Erbil. Assistant Professor Dr. Qusay Hameed Al-Salami, along with a group of third-year students, conducted a field visit to the high school on Monday, November 9, 2026.

These included damage to electrical installations, rainwater leaks through caravan roofs, and damage to floor furnishings in the classrooms.
