BAGHDAD — A project designed to power a clinic with the sun’s rays was officially completed and marked by a ribbon-cutting ceremony in the Ameriyah neighborhood here, Jan. 15.

The staff of the clinic is now capable of treating patients and delivering babies at any time of the day. Although the clinic has been running on solar power for a few weeks, the staff and supporters wanted to highlight the project with a ceremony.

BAGHDAD — In the past year, a number of schools across Iraq were renovated by Iraqi and Coalition forces. For one specific neighborhood and its children, the grand opening of the al-Hurriyah School, which was built from the ground up, is a sign that the Government of Iraq is placing a high priority on educating its youth.

The Jan. 15 grand opening was attended by members of the Iraqi Ministry of Education, Hurriyah Neighborhood Council, Iraqi and Multi-National Division – Baghdad Soldiers.

BAGHDAD — As the Security Agreement between the Government of Iraq and Coalition forces gains momentum, the Iraqi people continue to assume the responsibility for the security of their country.

This is no different in the rural, farming area of Arab Jabour, where local citizens took a stand to improve their quality of life and safety by supporting the grand opening of the Arab Jabour Iraqi Police (IP) Station, Jan. 11.
