As part of the Continuing Education activities, the Studies and Planning Division at the College of Dentistry, in cooperation with the Department of Studies and Planning \/ Sustainable Development Unit at the Presidency of the University of Mosul, held a workshop on Monday, 22 December 2025, entitled:
\n\u201cCombating Intellectual Terrorism.\u201d
\nThe workshop featured a lecture delivered by the international development trainer Prof. Kadem Faisal Ali, who addressed the concept of intellectual terrorism as one of the most serious challenges threatening the stability of societies, due to its direct impact on distorting awareness, restricting freedom of thought, and undermining human values.
\nThe lecture reviewed the most prominent forms and methods of intellectual terrorism, as well as the motives behind its spread, while highlighting the role of educational and cultural institutions in confronting it through the promotion of dialogue, critical thinking, and acceptance of others. It also emphasized the importance of strengthening community awareness, particularly among young people, as they represent the first line of defense against extremist ideas, and stressed the need to work toward building a cohesive society based on moderation and respect for intellectual diversity.
\nThe lecture was attended by the Dean of the College, Assistant Professor Dr. Neam Riyadh Saleem, the Assistant Dean for Scientific Affairs, in addition to a number of faculty members, staff, and first-year students.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
