On June 21, 2024, we made history in Dresden.
With eight founding members, a clear vision and endless passion, the International Kurdish Union for Academia and Scholarships (ikuas e.V.) was brought to life.
But it was more than just founding an association - it was the start of a movement.
A movement for education, language and identity.
A movement that will finally give Kurdology the space it deserves.
A movement that will open up new perspectives for young people - here in Germany and far beyond.
In a small, intensive circle, we not only signed statutes - we shared dreams, spun ideas and laid the foundation for something bigger than ourselves: the first International Kurdish University.
Every signature on this day was a commitment:
A commitment to the power of education.
A commitment to the Kurdish language and culture.
A commitment to the idea of overcoming borders and building bridges.
Our journey together begins now.
And we invite you to become part of it.
Together we shape the future. Together we write history.
Can you feel it too?
The beginning is in the air.
