The ability to learn and understand is a divine gift bestowed upon humanity, and education is an essential moral and social responsibility that all civilizations and religions have committed throughout history. A fair and efficient educational system is imperative to prepare future generations to confront contemporary challenges and contribute to the progress of human civilization.
Universities are crucial in shaping individuals and societies, providing an environment where minds are refined and scientific and professional personalities are nurtured. This is achieved through building knowledge, fostering curiosity, promoting constructive analytical thinking, and instilling a sense of good citizenship. For universities to remain effective, they require a free and open environment that encourages growth and vitality. This will enable universities to produce specialists in all aspects of life who can devise solutions to current and future societal problems.
Therefore, it is incumbent upon professors, staff, and students at the University of Baghdad to work together diligently and constructively to create a productive academic community that relies on free analysis and logical deduction. This can only be accomplished through a protected environment rich in science, knowledge, and tolerance. We are committed to achieving excellence, creating opportunities, and exerting constructive influence to serve our nation and humanity. Our focus is on addressing common challenges, such as achieving and sustaining social justice and well-being, while also tackling existential threats to humanity, such as climate change and the ethical use of technology.
