OPERATION DAGSVÆRK: Chaldoassyrian Students and Youth Union is Organising Daily Streetsport Activiti

More than 125 children participated in an arrangement for internal refugees, with the help of ChaldoAssyrian Students and Youth Association and Radio Ashur, with administrational help from CCPA and financial support from Operation Days Work.
2 weeks after holding a seminar for coaches in Ainkawa, the volunteers have continued their work in the camps and centres for Christian IDP’s in Ainkawa. CCPA has expanded its portfolio of activities in Iraq by adding a cultural and educational centre, along with the sports centre that has been active in Iraq since 2004.
125 kids and more than 25 volunteers of Assyrian, Chaldean and Syriac background, participated in the arrangement. All of them have fled from ISIS’ expansion in the Nineveh plans in the past two months.
New features have been added to CCPA’s activities in Iraq; an educational centre where the youth will receive elementary level education during their refugee status, where they haven’t had the opportunity to join in any schools.
Besides from that, a cultural centre will be added to every opening of a Open Fun Football School, where minors will have art and humanities classes; receiving kindergarten level education on creativity, tolerance, humanity, love, respect and friendship.
After the success of the latest opening of Open Fun Football School, the activities will now be expanded to Karbala and Najaf, where Shiite Turkmens have settled after fleeing the Salahedine province. Also activities will start in Suleymaniyah, where Yezidis have fled Mosul. While the same will be done in Baghdad, where many Shiite Kurds (Faylis) have fled the terrorist attacks in the Diyalah province. The expansion and humanitarian work of CCPA has received a lot of media attention in Iraq, with political parties talking about the activities held in these crisis areas.
