The center of heritage revival organizes workshop) the effect of educational organizations In empowering rural women) :

Under the supervision of the prof. Dr. Alaa Nafea Jasim , the center organized workshop entitled (the )effect of educational organizations In empowering rural women(on Wednesday 25^th/9/2024 where sited on Nabila A. Munam hall , the lecture presented by prof. Dr. Anas Esam Ismaiel who talked about the rural woman as she lost more of her legal and social laws according to traditional traditions but it is rather, they are remnants of pre-Islamic customs that have resisted elimination despite the passage of centuries since the Islamic message, due to the desire of the male society to prevail and dominate, as it is the one with power and strength, so it gradually returns women to the pre-Islamic customs, exploiting their ignorance of the features of their religion and the laws of their country. Hence, we find that rural society is always keen to deprive women of education so that they do not rebel against the customs of rural society, according to their claim. Likewise, educational conditions have not helped girls to learn, as many preparatory schools in rural society are still mixed-gender. The process of saving women from ignorance, backwardness and the dominance of customs is led by education and more efforts by the concerned bodies to educate them and save them from what they are in. In conclusion, the director of the center thanked the researcher, wishing him continued success in serving our distinguished university and our beloved Iraq.
