The University of Warith Al-Anbiyaa, through its College of Law, recently hosted a seminar exploring the role of Iraq’s original tribes in supporting societal peace.

Held on 31 January 2024, the seminar brought together academics, government representatives, tribal leaders, and community stakeholders. By creating a space for diverse voices to share insights, the university facilitated a meaningful dialogue on how tribal customs can complement formal legal systems in resolving disputes and strengthening social cohesion — a cornerstone of sustainable, resilient communities.

Discussions highlighted practical examples of community-led conflict resolution and examined strategies that can help communities and institutions work more effectively together. By fostering these exchanges, the seminar naturally contributed to peaceful, inclusive institutions, reinforced resilient and cohesive communities, and encouraged collaborative partnerships across sectors.

This event exemplifies the university’s commitment to bringing knowledge, tradition, and policy together, helping to inform decision-making and support solutions that benefit society broadly. Through initiatives like this, the College of Law plays a vital role in nurturing dialogue and partnerships that advance long-term societal well-being.
