Book campaign for the Mesopotamia Academy of Social Sciences in Qamişlo

With the aim to establish a multilingual library for the first Kurdish university in Rojava – Mesopotamia Academy of Social Scienes – which was opened on 2nd September 2014, we, as a group of students from North Kurdistan, Turkey and Europe, are launching a book campaign. Our aim is to collect books in every language and from everywhere which will be donated to Mesopotamia Academy to establish a multilingual library. People from abroad can join the campaign in two ways: (1) they can collect books in their located country and can send them via courier to the adresses given below or (2) they can buy books on the internet and send them to the adresses.

The primary responsibilty is on the shoulders of students to raise awareness to the campaign. We call on everyone to support the Mesopotamia Academy of Social Scienes that aims to build an educational system based on democracy, freedom and equality. We believe that any aid sent to Rojava will contribute to establish day by day a free and common society and that the coexistence of Peoples will be strengthened. Since its establishment, the Democratic Autonomous Cantons of Rojava have made big efforts in this direction and raises hope to the peoples.

To strengthen this hope and move these efforts forward, we are exicted to launch the campaign with the aim to establish an extensive library which is an essential need for the Academy. We invite you to be part of this excitment and show solidarity to expand the campaign.
