In the spirit of promoting nonviolence among Iraqi youth, IARP and its partner the Muslim Peacemaker Teams (MPT) have arranged friendly football matches for its soccer team with other teams in Iraq.
The goal of the soccer team is to build friendship between the various sects and regions of Iraq. Along with matches, MPT coordinates social events for the teams and communities where the matches take place. The events provide an opportunity for MPT to talk about its work for peace and nonviolence in Iraq and for participants to interact and build relationships.
The Unreturned follows five Iraqis and their families who are among the 40 percent of the country’s middle class who have fled the country since 2003. Without them, Iraq still lacks reliable electricity, clean water, sanitation, and health-care services. This is an unmitigated disaster for Iraq, a shattered nation that desperately needs its native professional class to return and help itself rebuild.
The UNHCR Refugee Film Festival raises awareness of the world’s 43 million refugees and internally displaced persons who are forced to flee due to persecution and conflict. The 5th edition of the festival will present about 20 films from all over the world, with numerous filmmakers and special guests in attendance.
