A donation for the (un)forgotten Halabja region in Iraqi Kurdistan

This year, the Czech Republic did not owe anything to its reputation and provided a Tied Financial Donations (TFD) to the hospital in Halabja as an activity of the Reconstruction Programme of the Czech Republic in the Middle East region.

This is the only hospital dedicated to treating the diseases that are the sad heritage of the 1988 chemical attack. Czechia has joined Germany and France, which are also contributing to the development of the region with their aid. This time it was a dermatology office from the Association of Manufacturers and Suppliers of Medical Devices. The company Comedeq, s.r.o. delivered the TFD to the place, built and trained the local medical staff.  

Thanks to this, on November 8th, 2023, we were able to officially hand over this dermatology office to the hospital management. All this was done in the presence of the Governor of Halabja Mr. Azad Tofiq, the Director General of Health Mr. Dr. Azad M. Qader and the local media. We had the opportunity to talk to a local dermatologist who was very complimentary of the new equipment, consumables, and instruments that the dermatology office is now modern equipped.   

CZ CG Erbil thanks everyone for their joint collaboration and we hope that the TFD will be available to all those in need and help to improve access to quality healthcare in the region.
