In an effort to integrate refugees into the Kurdish society and help them find jobs, the Deir Mariam Al-Adra monastery in Sulaymaniyah launched language learning courses 3 weeks ago. Language courses include teaching English, Arabic, and Kurdish languages for 160 people. The majority of the students are youths who came from different regions. The aim is to help displaced people who fled ISIS to the Kurdistan region to secure their lives. The courses were sponsored by French and Italian institutions.
