Through our contacts in U.S, we pressure officials and government to protect freedom of speech, free press, and human rights. We work with various groups and organizations in Kurdistan and United States to promote freedom of speech, create a safe environment for press, and stop any violations of human rights in those countries.

YOUTH DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS

KAG works to enhance the education of the Kurds youth by creating a healthy environment through practice of teaching, advising, dialogue, toleration, and mutual understanding in a civil and democratic manner.

KAG encourage families to seek consultations and advisers to help their youth to have better understanding of various colleges, programs, financial aids to better position themselves for the future of their youth.
