hospitals in Sulaimani and interacted with 

patients along with a team of doctors from 

the hospital. The use of micro-algae 

Spirulina is being explored to counter 

many life threatening diseases that include 

HIV/AIDS and cancer among others 

besides its inherent potential to bridge the 

health divide in an effective and efficient 

manner within a very short span of time. 

Recognising the crucial role modern 

education can play along with its traditional 

counterpart in the empowerment and 

development process, H.E. Cavaliere 

Philip Bonn in the presence of Dr. Ali 

Saeed Mohammad, President of the 

University of Sulaimani announced CISRI- 

ISP’s Scholarships for meritorious students 

to pursue their doctoral degree in the field 

of Human Rights. 

During the visit, the delegation prayed for 

the Iraqi people and the world peace, 

outside a former detention centre. The 

delegation also observed a one minute 

silence in the memory of the dead and the 

ones who were tortured. 

Prior to its official meeting with the Ministry 

of Health in the Republic of Iraq, the 

delegation visited one of the most modern 

H.E. Cavaliere. Philip Bonn also addressed 

the young students of the Faculty of 

Medicine of the University of Sulaimani 

and inspired them to take challenges with 

a stride. He emphasised the positive role 

that the medical community can play to 

bridge the global health divide and secure 

the Right to Food and quality nutrition. 

In order to fulfil its pledge to create assistance for education in the Republic of Iraq, 

CISRI-ISP along with its Official Working Partners would be introducing educational 








programmes that could benefit the young minds of the country in order to make them a 

key-stakeholder in the modern development process not only of Iraq but of the world. 

H.E. Cavaliere Philip Bonn also explored the possibilities to launch CISRI-ISP’s 

affirmative action programme “Global Sports for Peace’ in the Republic Iraq at the 

earliest. The initiative aims to use sports as potent tool towards peace and development. 

Global Sports for Peace is guided by the Directives associated with the following 

United Nations’ General Assembly Resolutions: 

(60/8)-Building a Peaceful and Better World through Sport and the Olympic Ideal 

(59/10)- Sports as a means to promote education, health, development and peace 

by proclaiming the year ‘2005’ as ‘International Year of Sports and Physical 

Education’ 

(55/2)- ‘The Millennium Declaration’ by the Heads of the Member States of the 

United Nations, 8 th September 2000 

(60/3)- Proclamation of the period ‘2001-2010’ as “The International Decade for a 

Culture of Peace and Non-Violence for the Children of the World” 

(1325) -Assuring women’s participation in peace-making and peace-building 

(56/168)- Ad Hoc Committee for a comprehensive and integral international 

convention to promote and protect the rights and dignity of persons with 

disabilities 

Global Sports for Peace hopes to be a catalyst in organizing, securing, implementing, 

and assuring all stakeholders- Government, Private Sector, and Civil Society- contacts 

necessary to implement the programme. The goodwill ambassadors of the programme 

from across the world would also be playing a key role in the initiative.
