As they finalize their courses in Poland, Cihan University-Erbil students participate in different events and ceremonies. Recently, they, together with other international students, took part in the 106th anniversary of Poland’s Independence Day in Łódź.
On Monday (11/11/2024), a festival was held in Łódź to commemorate the 106th anniversary of Polish Independence Day in which Dina Ali Hassan and Zanon Saad Zanon from the Department of Medical Biochemical Analysis and Shewar Rzhdi Mohammed from the Department of Education of Cihan University-Erbil participated. These students are currently studying a course at the University of Łódź. During the festival, several activities were presented including military parades, concerts, and ceremonies to honor the Polish nation`s history, culture, and heroes.
Poland’s Independence Day is celebrated annually on November 11th to commemorate the country’s restoration of sovereignty in 1918. 123 years ago, Poland was divided by Austria, Hungary, Brussels, and Russia. However, at the end of World War I, Poland declared its independence due to decades of struggle and resistance by Polish patriots. As a result, November 11th is considered the most important national holiday and a symbol of resistance, pride, and commitment to liberty. The students of Cihan University-Erbil also got familiar with the ceremony`s historical and cultural aspects.
