On 10/2/2026 In effort to make an engaging blend of education and community the Nutrition and Dietetics students from Tishk International University visited one of Erbil’s most Prestigious schools Barzani Namr School to host an seminar on the transformative power of food, nutrition and wholesome eating habits . Principal Dlsoz Abdulla expressed her deep appreciation for the visit of nutrition and dietetics department and she noted that the university’s creative approach and practical support left a lasting impression on both the staff of Barzani Namr school as well as the students.
To capture the imagination of the students and make sure the information provided was understandable for them to make sure they can apply the information they are given easily in their daily life , the Nutrition and Dietetics students used easy and very creative analogies, comparing food to fuel to the body or making some easy diet and food illustrations which were healthy and they could easily make them a part of their daily food habit as well as a segment about how fast food can decrease their school performance.
The atmosphere of the day was further elevated by a generous community gesture of Nutrition and dietetics students. Where they provided some Nutritious and fun snacks to make sure they undrestand how to choose healthy foods and also to make it a memorable seminar session that they can remember while trying to navigate their eating habits, This hands on demonstration allowed students to taste the difference that wholesome nutrition makes, reinforcing the day’s educational goals.
Activities such as seminars and presentations are very important in the schools and especially at the age of elementary school because community’s health is determined in early stages of human’s life. Thats why Nutrition and Dietetics Department tries to insure the community’s Health from the beginning by doing such activities in the community.
