[size=45]And he indicated that “the number of illiteracy and the danger of ages who did not enter schools and did not learn have contributed a lot to the emergence of a great scourge of backwardness and being drawn into drugs, theft and crime, and the increase in cases of depression, suicide and others, which require the Iraqi state and government to pay high and sufficient attention, which is supposed to be commensurate with the announced numbers and the allocation of a budget It is possible to find a partnership between international and international organizations in order to create multiple opportunities, the first of which is to find new additional job opportunities that international organizations will undertake to implement and their financial costs through retirement with a number of graduates of colleges and educational institutes. We have achieved real programs that contribute to reducing illiteracy in general and contribute to creating new job opportunities in the form of contracts or financial and administrative organizations for graduates who are not appointed in the Iraqi state’s owners.”[/size]
