Participants in the Education for Dialogue and Understanding the Other camp visited the historic Ziggurat of Ur in the city of Nasiriyah.
The Knights of Dialogue toured the city’s ruins, considered the cradle of Sumerian civilization and one of the most prominent surviving ancient sites. They listened to a detailed explanation provided by the site’s caretakers along with local activists.
The camp participants, organized by Masarat Foundation for Cultural and Media Development in cooperation with KAICIID Arabic and House of Coexistence, also visited the house of Prophet Abraham.
This visit comes within the framework of strengthening commonalities among Iraq’s communities to promote dialogue.
It is noteworthy that the “Through Dialogue We Remain and Rise” camp began in Baghdad with the participation of youth from Sinjar, joined later by youth from Baghdad in its first phase, then reached Basra where local youth joined the team. The camp has now arrived in Dhi Qar and will soon continue its tour in other Iraqi cities as part of a program aimed at promoting dialogue as a tool for building peace among followers of different religions and combating hate speech.
