The young man, Soran, initiated the establishment of a small mobile school in one of the parks in Sulaymaniyah, to educate street children working in the markets and alleys, most of whom are displaced and refugees. The initiative coincided with the start of the new school year, as these children were unable to attend their schools due to difficult financial conditions. The initiative aims to deliver a message to the Iraqi government and international organizations, and to consider the rights of the child in education, in addition to encouraging them to return to their schools, According to the Child Protection Organization in the Kurdistan Region, 600 children in Sulaymaniyah work in the streets and markets, half of them without education.
