From Prof. Muntasir Alshareef, professor at the Blue Community / Blue University MTU – Middle Technical University, Baghdad, Iraq:
Subject: Introducing Our Official Department Page & Regional Hub to the Blue Communities Network
As part of our commitment to transparency, open knowledge sharing, and strengthening our regional identity within the global Blue Community network, I am delighted to share with you the newly launched official Facebook page of our Water Resources & Environmental Technologies Department at Middle Technical University (MTU).
This platform serves as a living window into our day-to-day academic innovations, student-led field projects, and community engagement in Baghdad. It is also where we highlight our joint initiatives—such as our ongoing collaboration with Blue Community representatives, integrating NhufS (Nature Helps Us Find Solutions) and WAAD (We Are All Different) alongside our ethical AI and GIS applications.

This is an important step in connecting education, research, innovation and community action with the wider global Blue Community movement. We particularly appreciate the department’s focus on student-led projects, open knowledge, GIS, ethical AI and Ecosystem-Based Solutions, as well as its commitment to preparing a new generation of water guardians in Iraq.
We encourage students, young researchers and future water professionals in Iraq to discover this exciting initiative and become part of a growing international community working for water, environmental protection and a sustainable future.
We are proud to see the Blue Community growing in Iraq and look forward to following and supporting the department’s work and its students.
